Description: Homo sapiens S100 calcium binding protein A6 (S100A6), mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_014624): The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. S100 genes include at least 13 members which are located as a cluster on chromosome 1q21. This protein may function in stimulation of Ca2+-dependent insulin release, stimulation of prolactin secretion, and exocytosis. Chromosomal rearrangements and altered expression of this gene have been implicated in melanoma. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

ID:S10A6_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Protein S100-A6; AltName: Full=Calcyclin; AltName: Full=Growth factor-inducible protein 2A9; AltName: Full=MLN 4; AltName: Full=Prolactin receptor-associated protein; Short=PRA; AltName: Full=S100 calcium-binding protein A6; FUNCTION: May function as calcium sensor and contribute to cellular calcium signaling (Potential). May function by interacting with other proteins and indirectly play a role in the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and in cell motility. Binds 2 calcium ions. Calcium binding is cooperative. SUBUNIT: Homodimer; head to tail assembly of 2 subunits. Interacts with CACYBP (By similarity). Interacts with ANXA2 and ANXA11 (via N-terminus). Interacts with SUGT1. Interacts with TP53; has higher affinity for TP53 that is phosphorylated on its N-terminal domain, and lower affinity for TP53 that is phosphorylated on its C- terminal domain. Interacts with tropomyosin. Interacts with FKBP4. Interacts with CACYBP in a calcium-dependent manner (By similarity). INTERACTION: P04271:S100B; NbExp=5; IntAct=EBI-352877, EBI-458391; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus envelope. Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. INDUCTION: Preferentially expressed when quiescent fibroblasts are stimulated to proliferate. It is inducible by growth factors and overexpressed in acute myeloid leukemias. PTM: The N-terminus is blocked. MISCELLANEOUS: This protein co-purified with the prolactin receptor. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the S-100 family. SIMILARITY: Contains 2 EF-hand domains.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
