Abstract excerpt
Calsenilin is a recently-identified member of the neuronal calcium sensor family. Like other members of this family, it is found in the brain and binds calcium. Calsenilin was discovered by virtue of its interaction with both presenilin-1 and -2, proteins that are involved in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease. Because calsenilin may play a role in Alzheimer's disease and other disease with alterations in...
