GlossaryCalcium-Binding Protein 1

regulates intracellular calcium levels crucial for cellular processes

Calcium-Binding Protein 1 (CaBP1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in regulating calcium levels within cells. It binds to calcium ions, which is essential for various cellular processes such as muscle contraction, neurotransmitter release, and cell signaling. This protein is particularly important in the nervous system, where it helps modulate the activity of calcium channels and other proteins involved in neuronal communication.
