Summary: Enables several functions, including calcium-dependent cysteine-type endopeptidase activity; enzyme binding activity; and titin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including response to calcium ion; response to muscle activity; and sodium-dependent self proteolysis. Located in T-tubule and Z disc. Biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant limb-girdle muscular dystrophy; autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A; and muscular dystrophy. Orthologous to human CAPN3 (calpain 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

calpain-3 is not responsible for Ca(2+)-induced disruption of EC coupling, but that mu-calpain is a plausible candidate
Title: Involvement of calpains in Ca2+-induced disruption of excitation-contraction coupling in mammalian skeletal muscle fibers.
calpain-3 remains quiescent with normal exercise but is activated following eccentric (stretching) contractions, when resting [Ca(2+)] is elevated
Title: Endogenous calpain-3 activation is primarily governed by small increases in resting cytoplasmic [Ca2+] and is not dependent on stretch.
All calpain-3 is bound tightly within a fibre, whereas most mu-calpain ( approximately 0.2 microm) is initially freely diffusible in the cytoplasm at resting [Ca(2+)] but binds within seconds at high [Ca(2+)].
Title: Ca2+ activation of diffusible and bound pools of mu-calpain in rat skeletal muscle.
Calpain 3 is specifically expressed in a subset of astrocytes and may be involved in astrocyte plasticity and/or motility.
Title: Calpain 3 is expressed in astrocytes of rat and Microcebus brain.
the time- and concentration-dependent changes in [Ca2+]i that occurred during concentric exercise fall near but below the level necessary to cause autolysis of calpains in vivo

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
