CALML5 rabbit polyclonal, anti-human, mouse, rat

Backgroud: This gene encodes a novel calcium binding protein expressed in the epidermis and related to the calmodulin family of calcium binding proteins. Functional studies with recombinant protein demonstrate it does bind calcium and undergoes a conformational change when it does so. Abundant expression is detected only in reconstructed epidermis and is restricted to differentiating keratinocytes. In addition, it can associate with transglutaminase 3, shown to be a key enzyme in the terminal differentiation of keratinocytes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],function:Binds calcium. May be involved in terminal differentiation of keratinocytes.,similarity:Contains 4 EF-hand domains.,subunit:Associates with transglutaminase 3.,tissue specificity:Particularly abundant in the epidermis where its expression is directly related to keratinocyte differentiation. Very low expression in lung.,
