Comprehensive Sequence Analysis of Parvalbumins in Fish and Their Comparison with Parvalbumins in Tetrapod Species [PDF]
Biology, 2022 Parvalbumins are small molecules with important functions in Ca2+ signaling, but their sequence comparisons to date, especially in fish, have been relatively poor.

Linear epitopes of bony fish β-parvalbumins [PDF]
Frontiers in ImmunologyIntroductionFish β-parvalbumins are common targets of allergy-causing immunity. The nature of antibody responses to such allergens determines the biological outcome following exposure to fish. Specific epitopes on these allergens recognised by antibodies

Oncomodulin: The Enigmatic Parvalbumin Protein [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019 EF-hand Ca2+-binding protein family members, α- and β-parvalbumins have been studied for decades. Yet, considerable information is lacking distinguishing functional differences between mammalian α-parvalbumin (PVALB) and oncomodulin (OCM), a branded β ...

Molecular and gene expression analyses of chicken oncomodulin and their association with breast myopathies in broilers [PDF]
Poultry Science: Oncomodulins (OCMs), also known as non-α-parvalbumins, are small molecules known for their high-affinity binding of Ca2+ ions. They play crucial roles as Ca2+ buffers and participate in signaling pathways within muscle and neuron cells.

A Cross-Reactive Human Single-Chain Antibody for Detection of Major Fish Allergens, Parvalbumins, and Identification of a Major IgE-Binding Epitope. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Fish allergy is associated with moderate to severe IgE-mediated reactions to the calcium binding parvalbumins present in fish muscle. Allergy to multiple fish species is caused by parvalbumin-specific cross-reactive IgE recognizing conserved epitopes. In

Chemical basis of prey recognition in thamnophiine snakes: the unexpected new roles of parvalbumins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Detecting and locating prey are key to predatory success within trophic chains. Predators use various signals through specialized visual, olfactory, auditory or tactile sensory systems to pinpoint their prey.

Parvalbumin and parvalbumin chandelier interneurons in autism and other psychiatric disorders
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022 Parvalbumin (PV) is a calcium binding protein expressed by inhibitory fast-spiking interneurons in the cerebral cortex. By generating a fast stream of action potentials, PV+ interneurons provide a quick and stable inhibitory input to pyramidal neurons and contribute to the generation of gamma oscillations in the cortex.
