Multiple Evolutionary Origins of Ubiquitous Cu2+ and Zn2+ Binding in the S100 Protein Family. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The S100 proteins are a large family of signaling proteins that play critical roles in biology and disease. Many S100 proteins bind Zn2+, Cu2+, and/or Mn2+ as part of their biological functions; however, the evolutionary origins of binding remain obscure.

Promiscuity mapping of the S100 protein family using a high-throughput holdup assay

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
S100 proteins are small, typically homodimeric, vertebrate-specific EF-hand proteins that establish Ca2+-dependent protein–protein interactions in the intra- and extracellular environment and are overexpressed in various pathologies.

Influence of S100A2 in Human Diseases

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
S100 proteins are a family of low-molecular-weight proteins characterized by two calcium-binding sites with a helix-loop-helix (“EF-hand-type”) domain.

Certainty of S100 from Physiology to Pathology [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
S100 exists in wide variety of tissues and cell types, originally isolated from brain tissue and they are of low molecular weight proteins. S100 is evenly distributed in cytoplasm and also in nucleoplasm and is involved in both intercellular and ...

S100s and HMGB1 Crosstalk in Pancreatic Cancer Tumors

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Pancreatic cancer remains a disease that is very difficult to treat. S100 proteins are small calcium binding proteins with diverse intra- and extracellular functions that modulate different aspects of tumorigenesis, including tumor growth and metastasis.

S100A6 protein negatively regulates CacyBP/SIP-mediated inhibition of gastric cancer cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Calcyclin-binding protein (CacyBP/SIP), identified on the basis of its ability to interact with S100 proteins in a calcium-dependent manner, was previously found to inhibit the proliferation and tumorigenesis of gastric cancer cells in our laboratory ...

Multifunctional Role of S100 Protein Family in the Immune System: An Update

open access: yesCells, 2022
S100 is a broad subfamily of low-molecular weight calcium-binding proteins (9–14 kDa) with structural similarity and functional discrepancy. It is required for inflammation and cellular homeostasis, and can work extracellularly, intracellularly, or both.

Intrinsically disordered and aggregation prone regions underlie β-aggregation in S100 proteins. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
S100 proteins are small dimeric calcium-binding proteins which control cell cycle, growth and differentiation via interactions with different target proteins.

Both Ca2+ and Zn2+ are essential for S100A12 protein oligomerization and function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background Human S100A12 is a member of the S100 family of EF-hand calcium-modulated proteins that are associated with many diseases including cancer, chronic inflammation and neurological disorders.

Significance of Elecsys (R) S100 immunoassay for real-time assessment of traumatic brain damage in multiple trauma patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: The neuroprotein S100 released into the circulation has been suggested as a reliable marker for primary brain damage. However, safe identification of relevant traumatic brain injury (TBI) may possibly be hampered by S100 release from ...
