Gene information for CAPN5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID726
Official gene symbolCAPN5
Full namecalpain 5
Aliases,FLJ46245,HTRA3,nCL-3,
Gene summaryCalpains are calcium-dependent cysteine proteases involved in signal transduction in a variety of cellular processes. A functional calpain protein consists of an invariant small subunit and 1 of a family of large subunits. CAPN5 is one of the large subunits. Unlike some of the calpains, CAPN5 and CAPN6 lack a calmodulin-like domain IV. Because of the significant similarity to Caenorhabditis elegans sex determination gene tra-3, CAPN5 is also called as HTRA3. [provided by RefSeq]
