Calbindins are Ca-binding proteins belonging to the troponin C superfamily.
There are two types of CaBPs: the "trigger"- and the "buffer"-CaBPs.
The conformation of "trigger" type CaBPs changes upon Ca2+ binding and exposes regions on protein that interact with target molecules, thus altering their activity.
The buffer-type CABP are thought to control the intracellular calcium concentration.
S100 protein or Ca-binding protein A1/S100A1 is also a member of low mol wt, cytoplasmic, calcium binding troponin family.
It is produced in the brain, muscle, and heart and a wide variety of normal and tumor cells.
S100 has two subunits: S100-alpha (mouse/rat/human 94 aa, chromosome 1q21) and S100-beta (mouse, rat/human 92 aa chromosome 21q22.2-q22.3) that forms either homodimer (alpha-alpha known as S-100a(0) or beta-beta known as S-100b) and heterodimers (known as S-100a) of ~21kD.
S100 alpha and beta chains show ~58% sequence identity.
9 different genes for S100 have been assigned on chromosome 21 namely S100A1-S1009.
S-100 contains 2 EF-hand domains.
S100A1 improves cardiac contractile performance both by regulating sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca ion handling myofbirilar Ca-ion responsiveness.
Leakage of S100 protein by glial cells into the extracellualr matrix, CSF and serum are useful in monitoring traumatic brain injury.
