Calcium Binding Proteins]
ABSTRACTCalcium ions are essentail for some of the cellular functions, including musclecontraction, adhesion, secretion, motility, growth, differentiation, gene expression,and cell death. The change in calcium concentration is transmitted as a signal ofthe intracellular second messenger. Calcium bin...
