Hippocalcin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HPCA gene.[5][6]

Hippocalcin is a calcium-binding protein that belongs to the neuronal calcium sensor (NCS) family of proteins.[7][8] It is expressed in mammalian brains especially in the hippocampus. It possesses a Ca2+/myristoyl switch.[9]

Processes

[edit]

Hippocalcin takes part in the following processes:

Interactions

[edit]

Hippocalcin interacts with following proteins:

  • Neuronal apoptosis inhibitory protein (NAIP)
  • Mixed lineage kinase 2 (MLK2) – MLK2 is myosin light chain kinase 2
  • The b2 adaptin of the AP2 complex
  • Calcium-dependent activator protein for secretion (CADPS)
