A Current History of Calreticulin

  • Chapter
Calreticulin

Part of the book series: Molecular Biology Intelligence Unit ((MBIU))

Abstract

Ca2+ plays a vital role as a second messenger in virtually all eukaryotic cells. Changes in the intracellular concentration of Ca2+, triggered by hormonal or electrical signals, elicit responses as diverse as contraction, cellular proliferation, secretion, metabolism adjustment, apoptosis, autoimmunity and changes in gene expression. Considering the diversity of the biological processes regulated by Ca2+, it is not surprising that many investigators have devoted their research entirely to Ca2+-binding proteins.
