- Background
- SERCA2, also called ATP2A2 or ATP2B, encodes one of the SERCA Ca (2+) -ATPases, which are intracellular pumps located in the sarcoplasmic or endoplasmic reticula of muscle cells. They are closely related to the plasma membrane Ca (2+) -ATPases, or PMCAs. SERCA2 belongs to the large family of P-type cation pumps that couple ATP hydrolysis with cation transport across membranes. The SERCA2 gene is mapped to 12q24.11. SERCA2 was expressed in all specimens, with pronounced expression in the subnuclear aspect of basal epidermal keratinocytes. There was variable suprabasal expression. SERCA2 expression was also observed in the infundibulum and outer root sheath of hair follicles; germinative and mature cells of sebaceous glands; secretory coil and duct of eccrine glands; apocrine gland cells; and arrector pili muscle. In Darier disease skin, strong SERCA2 positivity was detected in the basal, suprabasal, and acantholytic lesional cells.

- Tissue Specificity
- Isoform 1 is widely expressed in smooth muscle and nonmuscle tissues such as in adult skin epidermis, with highest expression in liver, pancreas and lung, and intermediate expression in brain, kidney and placenta. Also expressed at lower levels in heart and skeletal muscle. Isoforms 2 and 3 are highly expressed in the heart and slow twitch skeletal muscle. Expression of isoform 3 is predominantly restricted to cardiomyocytes and in close proximity to the sarcolemma. Both isoforms are mildly expressed in lung, kidney, liver, pancreas and placenta. Expression of isoform 3 is amplified during monocytic differentiation and also observed in the fetal heart. .
