developmental stage:Preferentially expressed in normal human mammary epithelial cells as opposed to tumor-derived ones. The level of S100L was shown to correlate inversely with tumor progression.,function:May act as a modulator against excess calcium accumulation in normal human mammary epithelial cells. May also play a role in suppressing tumor cell growth.,induction:By growth factors in early G1 phase and probably by cell-cycle regulation in S phase. DNA methylation probably plays a direct negative role in suppressing S100L gene expression in tumor cells.,miscellaneous:This protein binds two calcium ions.,similarity:Belongs to the S-100 family.,similarity:Contains 2 EF-hand domains.,tissue specificity:A subset of epithelial cells including normal human mammary epithelial cells and keratinocytes.,
