RCAN2, belonging to the RCAN (Regulator of calcineurin) family modulate the activity of Calcineurin through a valine-rich region within their carboxyl tail. RCANs compete with NFAT(nuclear factor of activated T-cells) for binding to the same docking site in calcineurin, which results in either inhibition or activation of calcineurin activity. RCAN2 is a Ca(2+) dependent protein phosphatase that is involed in several neuornal functions.
