function:Calsequestrin is a high-capacity, moderate affinity, calcium-binding protein and thus acts as an internal calcium store in muscle. The release of calcium bound to calsequestrin through a calcium release channel triggers muscle contraction.,function:Calsequestrin is a high-capacity, moderate affinity, calcium-binding protein and thus acts as an internal calcium store in muscle. The release of calcium bound to calsequestrin through a calcium release channel triggers muscle contraction. Binds 40 to 50 moles of calcium. Also binds laminin.,online information:Calsequestrin entry,similarity:Belongs to the calsequestrin family.,subcellular location:This isoform of calsequestrin occurs in the sarcoplasmic reticulum's terminal cisternae luminal spaces of fast skeletal muscle cells. Also mitochondrial according to PubMed:7945294.,
Endoplasmic reticulum . Sarcoplasmic reticulum . Sarcoplasmic reticulum lumen . Sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Lumenal side . Mitochondrion matrix . This isoform of calsequestrin occurs in the sarcoplasmic reticulum's terminal cisternae luminal spaces of fast skeletal muscle cells. Preferentially forms linear and round aggregates in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of resting cells (PubMed:28895244). In a minority of cells, homogeneously detected in the ER lumen (PubMed:28895244). Colocalizes with STIM1 at endoplasmic reticulum in response to a depletion of intracellular calcium (PubMed:27185316). .
Expressed in myoblasts (at protein level).
