Description: Protein kinase C (PKC) zeta is a member of the PKC family of serine/threonine kinases which are involved in a variety of cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation and secretion. Unlike the classical PKC isoenzymes which are calcium-dependent, PKC zeta exhibits a kinase activity which is independent of calcium and diacylglycerol but not of phosphatidylserine. Furthermore, it is insensitive to typical PKC inhibitors and cannot be activated by phorbol ester. Unlike the classical PKC isoenzymes, it has only a single zinc finger module. These structural and biochemical properties indicate that the zeta subspecies is related to, but distinct from other isoenzymes of PKC. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

Description: Calcium-dependent membrane-binding proteins may regulate molecular events at the interface of the cell membrane and cytoplasm. CPNE1 is a Calcium-dependent protein that also contains two N-terminal type II C2 domains and an integrin A domain-like sequence in the C-terminus. However, the protein does not contain a predicted signal sequence or transmembrane domains. This protein has a broad tissue distribution and it may function in membrane trafficking.Calcium-dependent membrane-binding proteins may regulate molecular events at the interface of the cell membrane and cytoplasm.

Description: Calretinin is a 29 kDa calcium binding protein that is expressed in central and peripheral nervous system and in many normal and pathological tissues. Calretinin is also considered an important diagnostic aid in the differential diagnosis of cystic and solid ameloblastic tumors. The rat and human calretinin exhibit 98% sequence homology and 91% homology to many other species. Calretinin is generally expressed with two other calcium binding proteins Calbindin D-29 and parvalbumin in CNS and other peripheral tissues. Two calcium-binding proteins, calbindin and calretinin, have been reported to be expressed in abundance in Purkinje cells and other cell types in the cerebellum. The antibodies against calretinin also labels the mossy fibers throughout, and climbing fibers in a distinct group of folia. They also stain several cell types in the molecular layer. There is no appreciable immunostaining of calretinin in cerebellar cortex. In the rat, antibodies against calretinin stain the Lugaro cells, and some granule cells in lobe X; they also give weak staining of all the granule cells in the other lobes. Calretinin antibodies have been used to detect a number of carcinomas by clinicopathological, immunohistochemical techniques including, epithelial malignant mesotheliomas, Ovarian yolk sac tumor, Adenomatoid tumors of the uterus etc.

Description: The Annexins are a family of structurally similar proteins. Annexins bind to phospholipids and may be involved in regulation of membrane transport, membrane channel activity, and interaction of the cell membrane with the extracellular matrix. Annexin A7 is a member of the annexin family of calcium dependent phospholipid binding proteins. The Annexin A7 gene contains 14 exons and spans approximately 34 kb of DNA. Structural analysis of the protein suggests that Annexin A7 is a membrane binding protein with diverse properties including voltage sensitive calcium channel activity, ion selectivity and membrane fusion.

Catalog Number: (77438-646)

Supplier: Bioss

Description: This gene encodes a member of the glutamate-gated ion channel protein family. The encoded protein is an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subunit. NMDA receptors are both ligand-gated and voltage-dependent, and are involved in long-term potentiation, an activity-dependent increase in the efficiency of synaptic transmission thought to underlie certain kinds of memory and learning. These receptors are permeable to calcium ions, and activation results in a calcium influx into post-synaptic cells, which results in the activation of several signaling cascades. Disruption of this gene is associated with focal epilepsy and speech disorder with or without mental retardation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Description: Calreticulin is the major calcium binding protein found in smooth muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) and non-muscle endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes. This protein was originally identified in SR membranes and plays a minor role in calcium storage in skeletal and cardiac muscle SR. Calreticulin is also known as calregulin, CRP55, CaBP3, calsequestrin-like protein and Ro/SS-A antigen. Calreticulin binds calcium with low affinity and high capacity, however it also exhibits a single high affinity binding site. The highly conserved sequence Lys-Asp-Glu-Leu (KDEL) is present at the C-terminus of calreticulin and other resident ER proteins including glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78), GRP94 and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI). This sequence is responsible for the retention of newly synthesized proteins within the ER lumen. This retention is reported to be mediated by a KDEL receptor. Recent reports indicate that calreticulin can act as a modulator of the regulation of gene transcription by nuclear hormone receptors and may also act as a molecular chaperone.

Catalog Number: (10456-220)

Supplier: Bioss

Description: This gene encodes a calcium-binding protein belonging to the penta-EF-hand protein family. calcium binding is important for homodimerization and for conformational changes required for binding to other protein partners. This gene product participates in T cell receptor-, Fas-, and glucocorticoid-induced programmed cell death. In mice deficient for this gene product, however, apoptosis was not blocked suggesting this gene product is functionally redundant. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene, and a pseudogene of this gene is also located on the short arm of chromosome 5.

Description: Metabolism of inositol phospholipids by intracellular signaling mediators is fundamental to signal transduction in eukaryotic cells. PI-4,5-P2 (PIP2) can be synthesized by phosphorylation of PI-4-P by type I phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase (PIP5K I), or phosphorylation of PI-5-P by type II PIPK (PIP4K II). PI-4,5-P2 regulation of cellular calcium levels involves its hydrolysis by Phospholipase C (PLC) to produce inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG), which serve as second messengers in the import of calcium via IP3-sensitive ion channels and in the activation of PKC, respectively.
