CADPS2
geneOn this page
Also known as CAPS2
Summary
CADPS2 (calcium dependent secretion activator 2, HGNC:16018) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 7q31.32, encoding Calcium-dependent secretion activator 2 (Q86UW7). Calcium-binding protein involved in exocytosis of vesicles filled with neurotransmitters and neuropeptides.
This gene encodes a member of the calcium-dependent activator of secretion (CAPS) protein family, which are calcium binding proteins that regulate the exocytosis of synaptic and dense-core vesicles in neurons and neuroendocrine cells. Mutations in this gene may contribute to autism susceptibility. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

- identification, cloning, and comparative characterization of a second mammalian CAPS isoform, CAPS2; concluded that at the functional level, CAPS2 is largely redundant with CAPS1 (PMID:14530279)
- CADPS2-KO mice show autistic-like phenotypes. Moreover, the results show that some autistic patients have an aberrant splicing variant of CADPS2 mRNA, suggesting that a disturbance in CADPS2-mediated neurotrophin release contributes to autism. (PMID:17380209)
- Genetic disturbance in CADPS2-mediated neurotrophin release contributes to autism susceptibility. (PMID:17380209)
- Results from Cadps2-deficient mice and human data suggest that a disturbance in CADPS2-mediated neurotrophin release contributes to autistic-like cellular and behavioral phenotypes. (PMID:17380209)
- CAPS proteins are involved in optimizing vesicular monoamine uptake and storage mediated by VMAT1 and VMAT2 (PMID:19008227)
- We speculate that haploinsufficiency of CADPS2 contributes to ASDs. (PMID:21626674)
- This study suggested that CADPS2DeltaExon3 affects intelligence and memory in the non-clinical population. (PMID:22001167)
- Mutation screening of 187 patients with autism spectrum disorders and 36 with intellectual disability identified a missense change of maternal origin disrupting CADPS2/D2DR interaction. (PMID:24737869)
- These results indicate that LRRK2 and alpha-synuclein participate in the dysregulation of CADPS2 by altering transcription and support the hypothesis that synaptic dysfunctions, through different mechanisms, might contribute to the neuronal defects of diseases such as Parkinson’s disease. (PMID:28647363)
- The top SNP rs2049161 involved gene DLGAP1 and the top gene CADPS2 in the gene-based analysis resulted in much literature evidence of associations with psychiatric disorders. Gene expression and network analysis showed their contribution to cognition function. (PMID:28971736)

Function. Calcium-binding protein involved in exocytosis of vesicles filled with neurotransmitters and neuropeptides. Probably acts upstream of fusion in the biogenesis or maintenance of mature secretory vesicles. Regulates neurotrophin release from granule cells leading to regulate cell differentiation and survival during cerebellar development. May specifically mediate the Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis of large dense-core vesicles (DCVs) and other dense-core vesicles.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with the dopamine receptor DRD2.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane. Synapse. Cell projection. Cilium. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton. Cilium basal body. Microtubule organizing center. Centrosome.
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed. Expressed in all adult and fetal tissues examined, with the strongest expression in kidney and pancreas. In brain, it is expressed at high levels in cerebellum, to a lesser degree in cerebral cortex, occipital pole, and frontal and temporal lobes. Only weakly expressed in medulla, spinal cord and putamen.
Domain organisation. The PH domain is essential for regulated exocytosis and binds phospholipids.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 22 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
