Recombinant human EPM2A protein, also known as laforin, is a critical enzyme encoded by the EPM2A gene, mutations in which are linked to Lafora disease, a rare and fatal form of progressive myoclonus epilepsy. Laforin is a dual-specificity phosphatase characterized by a carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) and a protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) domain, enabling its unique role in glycogen metabolism. It regulates glycogen phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, preventing abnormal glycogen accumulation into insoluble aggregates called Lafora bodies, a hallmark of the disease. Dysfunctional laforin disrupts glycogen homeostasis, leading to neurotoxic inclusions and neurodegeneration.
The recombinant form of EPM2A is typically produced in expression systems like *E. coli* or mammalian cells, enabling biochemical and functional studies. Researchers use it to investigate laforin’s enzymatic activity, interactions with partners (e.g., malin), and mechanisms underlying Lafora disease pathogenesis. It aids in screening therapeutic compounds, structural analyses, and understanding post-translational modifications. Recombinant EPM2A also facilitates studies on its role beyond glycogen regulation, including cellular stress responses and protein quality control. Its production has advanced experimental models for testing gene therapies and enzyme replacement strategies, offering hope for targeted treatments. Studying this protein remains vital for unraveling metabolic epilepsy mechanisms and developing precision medicine approaches.
