Biological function summary
TPM2 ensures proper muscle contraction by regulating the interaction between actin and myosin two key components in muscle movement. It forms a complex with actin and troponin a critical protein that regulates muscle contraction through calcium ion binding. This complex facilitates muscle fiber contraction by exposing the binding sites for myosin on actin filaments. The presence of TPM2 in the complex is essential for the contraction mechanism allowing precise control of muscle movements.
Pathways
TPM2 acts in the regulation of muscle contraction and actin cytoskeleton signaling pathways. In the muscle contraction pathway TPM2 interacts closely with tropomyosin 1 (TPM1) and the myosin motor protein playing a regulatory role. It is involved in the actin cytoskeleton signaling pathway where it helps organize actin filaments necessary for various cellular activities. Through these pathways TPM2 integrates signals essential for muscle activity and cellular architecture maintenance.

ab103503 was purified by using anion-exchange chromatography (DEAE sepharose resin) and gel-filtration chromatography (Sephacryl S-200) with 20mM Tris pH 7.5, 2mM EDTA.
General info
Function
Binds to actin filaments in muscle and non-muscle cells. Plays a central role, in association with the troponin complex, in the calcium dependent regulation of vertebrate striated muscle contraction. Smooth muscle contraction is regulated by interaction with caldesmon. In non-muscle cells is implicated in stabilizing cytoskeleton actin filaments. The non-muscle isoform may have a role in agonist-mediated receptor internalization.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the tropomyosin family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated on Ser-61 by PIK3CG. Phosphorylation on Ser-61 is required for ADRB2 internalization (By similarity).
