Biological function summary
Caveolin-2 participates in modulating cellular functions such as signal transduction cholesterol homeostasis and endocytosis. As part of the caveolae complex it cooperates with caveolin-1 to regulate lipid raft domains influencing the movement and function of molecules within the cell. The presence of caveolin-2 helps maintain the caveolae structure and is involved in cellular responses to mechanical stress.
Pathways
Caveolin-2 is implicated in the regulation of insulin signaling and the Ras-MAPK signaling pathway. In the insulin signaling pathway it forms complexes with caveolin-1 and other proteins like IRS-1 affecting glucose uptake in cells. In the Ras-MAPK pathway caveolin-2 interacts with signaling molecules associated with the pathway modulating cell proliferation and survival.

General info
Function
May act as a scaffolding protein within caveolar membranes. Interacts directly with G-protein alpha subunits and can functionally regulate their activity. Acts as an accessory protein in conjunction with CAV1 in targeting to lipid rafts and driving caveolae formation. The Ser-36 phosphorylated form has a role in modulating mitosis in endothelial cells. Positive regulator of cellular mitogenesis of the MAPK signaling pathway. Required for the insulin-stimulated nuclear translocation and activation of MAPK1 and STAT3, and the subsequent regulation of cell cycle progression (By similarity).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the caveolin family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated on serine and tyrosine residues. CAV1 promotes phosphorylation on Ser-23 which then targets the complex to the plasma membrane, lipid rafts and caveolae. Phosphorylation on Ser-36 appears to modulate mitosis in endothelial cells (By similarity). Phosphorylation on both Tyr-19 and Tyr-27 is required for insulin-induced 'Ser-727' phosphorylation of STAT3 and its activation. Phosphorylation on Tyr-19 is required for insulin-induced phosphorylation of MAPK1 and DNA binding of STAT3. Tyrosine phosphorylation is induced by both EGF and insulin (By similarity).
