Design of Calcium-Binding Proteins to Sense Calcium [PDF]
Molecules, 2020 Calcium controls numerous biological processes by interacting with different classes of calcium binding proteins (CaBP’s), with different affinities, metal selectivities, kinetics, and calcium dependent conformational changes.

Modulation of calcium-binding proteins expression and cisplatin chemosensitivity by calcium chelation in human breast cancer MCF-7 cells [PDF]
Heliyon, 2021 Cisplatin (CDDP) is currently one of the most effective FDA-approved treatments for breast cancer. Previous studies have shown that CDDP-induced cell death in human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells is associated with disruption of calcium homeostasis. However,

Calcium-Binding Proteins with Disordered Structure and Their Role in Secretion, Storage, and Cellular Signaling [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2018 Calcium is one of the most important second messengers and its intracellular signaling regulates many aspects of cell physiology. Calcium ions, like phosphate ions, are highly charged and thus are able to alter protein conformation upon binding; thereby ...

The Interaction Between Non-Coding RNAs and Calcium Binding Proteins [PDF]
Frontiers in Oncology, 2022 Calcium binding proteins (CBP) are a group of proteins mediating the effects of calcium on cellular functions. These proteins can regulate calcium levels inside the cells and contribute in several cellular functions through transporting this ion across ...

Calcium-binding proteins are altered in the cerebellum in schizophrenia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Alterations in the cortico-cerebellar-thalamic-cortical circuit might underlie the diversity of symptoms in schizophrenia. However, molecular changes in cerebellar neuronal circuits, part of this network, have not yet been fully determined.

Cyclic AMP signaling in Dictyostelium promotes the translocation of the copine family of calcium-binding proteins to the plasma membrane [PDF]
BMC Cell Biology, 2018 Background Copines are calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins found in many eukaryotic organisms and are thought to be involved in signaling pathways that regulate a wide variety of cellular processes.

Calcium-binding proteins in the vorticellid spasmoneme [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 1978 The proteins of the contractile spasmoneme from Vorticella convallaria, Carcheslium polypinum, and Zoothamnium geniculatum have been extracted in the detergent, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), as well as urea and guanidine hydrochloride (GuCl). After SDS extraction, the molecular weight distribution of the proteins was examined by means of SDS ...
