Calcium-binding protein — Calcium binding proteins are proteins that participate in calcium cell signalling pathways by binding to Ca2+. The most ubiquitous Ca2+ sensing protein, found in all eukaryotic organisms including yeasts, is calmodulin. Intracellular storage and… … Wikipedia

Vitamin D-dependent calcium-binding protein — Vitamin D dependent calcium binding proteins were discovered in the cytosolic fractions of chicken intestine, and later in mammalian intestine and kidney, by workers including Robert Wasserman of Cornell University. They bound calcium in the… … Wikipedia

Calcium metabolism — or calcium homeostasis is the mechanism by which the body maintains adequate calcium levels. Derangements of this mechanism lead to hypercalcemia or hypocalcemia, which both can have important consequences for health.Calcium location and… … Wikipedia
Calcium in biology — Calcium (Ca2+) plays a vital role in the anatomy, physiology and biochemistry of organisms and of the cell, particularly in signal transduction pathways. The skeleton acts as a major mineral storage site for the element and releases Ca2+ ions… … Wikipedia
Neuronal calcium sensor — is a large family of proteins which work as calcium dependent molecular switches and includes members like Frequenin (NCS1), recoverin, GCAP, neurocalcin, visinin etc [1]. All the members carry 4 EF hand motifs (out of which only 2 or 3 bind… … Wikipedia
Calcium imaging — is a scientific technique usually carried out in research which is designed to show the calcium (Ca2+) status of a tissue or medium. Calcium imaging techniques take advantage of so called calcium indicators, molecules that can respond to the… … Wikipedia
