Recombinant Human S100A1 Protein

• Background:

  S100A1 is a Ca2+binding protein of the EF-hand type that belongs to the S100 protein family. S100 proteins consisting of at least 19 members exist as dimers in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells; and are involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell-cycle progression and cell differentiation.This protein has been shown to function in the processes including stimulation of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release; inhibition of microtubule assembly; and inhibition of PKC-mediated phosphorylation.. Phosphoglucomutase is a target protein whose activity is antagonistically regulated by S100A1; and recently; S100A1 is also identified as a potent molecular chaperone and a new member of the Hsp70/Hsp90 multichaperone complex. S100A1 displays a tissue-specific expression pattern with highest levels in myocardium and is considered to be an important regulator of cardiac contractility. Accordingly; reduced expression or mutations of S100A1 gene have been implicated in cardiomyopathies.
