The S-100 Protein Family: A Biochemical and Functional Overview

  • Chapter

Abstract

The intracellular Ca2+ concentration is closely regulated in eukaryotic cells. The concentration of Ca2+ transiently increases from a basal level of approximately 0.1 μM as a result of both flux into the cell of extracellular Ca2+ or release of intracellular Ca2+ stores. This increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration by 10- to 100-fold functions as an important second messenger signal which may be transduced by a variety of pathways to produce a Ca2+-mediated physiological response in the cell. The signal of increased intracellular Ca2+ needs to be transduced to a wide variety of cellular proteins or effector molecules in various subcellular compartments. These subcellular compartments have differing Ca2+ concentrations. The targets of the signal of increased Ca2+ differ dependent upon the cell type. The S-100 proteins are expressed in a cell-type specific fashion and, therefore, are excellent candidates to function as cell-type specific transducers of the signal of increased intracellular Ca2+. Cell-cycle progression, differentiation and a number of specific cellular physiological responses have been demonstrated to be dependent upon changes in the intracellular or subcellular compartment Ca2+ concentration. The S-100 proteins may function as cell-type specific and cell-cycle specific mediators of the Ca2+ signal.
