Gene information for S100P (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6286
Official gene symbolS100P
Full nameS100 calcium binding protein P
Aliases,MIG9,
Gene summaryThe 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; however, this gene is located at 4p16. This protein, in addition to binding Ca2+, also binds Zn2+ and Mg2+. This protein may play a role in the etiology of prostate cancer. [provided by RefSeq]
