Abstract excerpt
Intracellular calcium signals are responsible for initiating a spectrum of physiological responses. The caldendrins/calcium-binding proteins (CaBPs) represent mammal-specific members of the CaM superfamily. CaBPs display a restricted pattern of expression in neuronal/retinal tissues, suggesting a specialized role in Ca2+ signaling in these cell types. Recently, it was reported that a splice variant of CaBP1...
