Protein Information
Name CRB2 (HGNC:18688)
Function Apical polarity protein that plays a central role during the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) at gastrulation, when newly specified mesodermal cells move inside the embryo (By similarity). Acts by promoting cell ingression, the process by which cells leave the epithelial epiblast and move inside the embryo to form a new tissue layer (By similarity). The anisotropic distribution of CRB2 and MYH10/myosin-IIB at cell edges define which cells will ingress: cells with high apical CRB2 are probably extruded from the epiblast by neighboring cells with high levels of apical MYH10/myosin-IIB (By similarity). Plays a role in the maintenance of retinal neuroepithelium organization, structural integrity, adhesion, photoreceptor polarity and retinal photoreceptor layer thickness (By similarity). May play a role in determining the length of cone photoreceptor outer segments and proliferation of late-born progenitor cells (By similarity). Also required for maintenance of the apical polarity complex during development of the cortex (By similarity). Inhibits gamma-secretase- dependent cleavage of APP and secretion of amyloid-beta peptide 40 and amyloid-beta peptide 42, and thereby inhibits gamma-secretase-dependent Notch transcription (PubMed:20299451).
Cellular Location [Isoform 1]: Apical cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q80YA8}; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q80YA8}. Cell junction {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q80YA8}. Note=O-glucosylation is required for localization at the apical plasma membrane (By similarity). Distributed in a complex anisotropic pattern on apical cell edges: the level of CRB2 on a cell edge is inversely correlated with the level of MYH10/myosin-IIB (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q80YA8}
Tissue Location Expressed in glomeruli, podocytes of the glomerular capillary loops, and parietal glomerular epithelial cells in the kidney (at protein level) (PubMed:29473663, PubMed:27942854). Expressed in retina, fetal eye and brain (PubMed:15851977). Also expressed in kidney, RPE/choroid, and at low levels in lung, placenta, and heart (PubMed:15851977).

Background

CRB2 Antibody: CRB2 (Crumbs homolog 2), like its homologs CRB1 and CRB3, is similar to the Drosophila crumbs protein and is expressed in retina, brain and kidney. Along with other proteins, the Crumbs proteins form a complex that help set up cell polarity in developing neuroepithelial cells. At the onset of neural specification, embryonic stem cells (ESCs) upregulate CRB2, which then localizes apically in neural rosettes. Gain- and loss-of-function studies of CRB2 have shown that CRB2 is essential for the stabilization of other polarity proteins. Unlike CRB1, mutations in CRB2 do not appear to play a role in retinitis pigmentosa or in Leber congenital amaurosis.
