secretagogin, EF-hand calcium binding protein

Symbol

SCGN (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

The encoded protein is a secreted calcium-binding protein which is found in the cytoplasm. It is related to calbindin D-28K and calretinin. This protein is thought to be involved in KCL-stimulated calcium flux and cell proliferation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
