EF-hand, calcium binding motif, found in apoptosis-linked gene 2 protein (ALG-2) and similar proteins; ALG-2, also termed programmed cell death protein 6 (PDCD6), or probable calcium-binding protein ALG-2, is one of the prototypic members of the penta EF-hand protein family. It is a widely expressed calcium-binding modulator protein associated with cell proliferation and death, as well as cell survival. ALG-2 acts as a pro-apoptotic factor participating in T cell receptor-, Fas-, and glucocorticoid-induced programmed cell death, and also serves as a useful molecular marker for the prognosis of cancers. Moreover, ALG-2 functions as a calcium ion sensor at endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites, and modulates ER-stress-stimulated cell death and neuronal apoptosis during organ formation. Furthermore, ALG-2 can mediate the pro-apoptotic activity of cisplatin or tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) through the down-regulation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) expression. It also inhibits angiogenesis through PI3K/mTOR/p70S6K pathway by interacting of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2). In addition, nuclear ALG-2 may participate in the post-transcriptional regulation of Inositol Trisphosphate Receptor Type 1 (IP3R1) pre-mRNA at least in part by interacting with CHERP (Ca2+ homeostasis endoplasmic reticulum protein) calcium-dependently. ALG-2 contains five serially repeated EF-hand motifs and interacts with various proteins, including ALG-2-interacting protein X (Alix), Fas, annexin XI, death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPk1), Tumor susceptibility gene 101 (TSG101), Sec31A, phospholipid scramblase 3 (PLSCR3), the P-body component PATL1, and endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-III-related protein IST1, in a calcium-dependent manner. It forms a homodimer in the cell or a heterodimer with its closest paralog peflin. Among the PEF proteins, ALG-2 can bind three Ca2+ ions through its EF1, EF3, and EF5 hands, where it is unique in that its EF5 hand binds Ca2+ ion in a canonical coordination.

The penta-EF hand (PEF) family; The penta-EF hand (PEF) family contains a group of five EF-hand calcium-binding proteins, including several classical calpain large catalytic subunits (CAPN1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14), two calpain small subunits (CAPNS1 and CAPNS2), as well as non-calpain PEF proteins, ALG-2 (apoptosis-linked gene 2, also termed programmed cell death protein 6, PDCD6), peflin, sorcin, and grancalcin. Based on the sequence similarity of EF1 hand, ALG-2 and peflin have been classified into group I PEF proteins. Calcium-dependent protease calpain subfamily members, sorcin and grancalcin, are group II PEF proteins. Calpains (EC 3.4.22.17) are calcium-activated intracellular cysteine proteases that play important roles in the degradation or functional modulation in a variety of substrates. They have been implicated in a number of physiological processes such as cell cycle progression, remodeling of cytoskeletal-cell membrane attachments, signal transduction, gene expression and apoptosis. ALG-2 is a pro-apoptotic factor that forms a homodimer in the cell or a heterodimer with its closest paralog peflin through their EF5s. Peflin is a 30-kD PEF protein with a longer N-terminal hydrophobic domain than any other member of the PEF family, and it contains nine nonapeptide (A/PPGGPYGGP) repeats. It exists only as a heterodimer with ALG-2. The dissociation of heterodimer occurs in the presence of Ca2+. ALG-2 interacts with various proteins in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Sorcin (for soluble resistance-related calcium binding protein) is a soluble resistance-related calcium-binding protein that participates in the regulation of calcium homeostasis in cells. Grancalcin is a cytosolic Ca2+-binding protein specifically expressed in neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages. It plays a key role in leukocyte-specific functions that are responsible for host defense. Grancalcin can form a heterodimer together with sorcin. Members in this family contain five EF-hand motifs attached to an N-terminal region of variable length containing one or more short Gly/Pro-rich sequences. These proteins form homodimers or heterodimers through pairing between the 5th EF-hands from the two molecules. Unlike calmodulin, the PEF domains do not undergo major conformational changes upon binding Ca2+.

Penta-EF hand, calcium binding motifs, found in sorcin, grancalcin, and similar proteins; The family corresponds to the second group of penta-EF hand (PEF) proteins that includes sorcin, grancalcin, and similar proteins. Sorcin, also termed 22 kDa Ca2+-binding protein, CP-22, or V19, is a soluble resistance-related calcium-binding protein that is expressed in normal mammalian tissues, such as the liver, lungs and heart. It contains a flexible glycine and proline-rich N-terminal extension and five EF-hand motifs that associate with membranes in a calcium-dependent manner. It may harbor three potential Ca2+ binding sites through its EF1, EF2 and EF3 hands. However, binding of only two Ca2+/monomer suffices to trigger the conformational change that exposes hydrophobic regions and leads to interaction with the respective targets. Sorcin forms homodimers through the association of the unpaired EF5 hand. Among the PEF proteins, sorcin is unique in that it contains potential phosphorylation sites by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), and it can form a tetramer at slightly acid pH values although remaining a stable dimer at neutral pH. Grancalcin (GCA) is a cytosolic Ca2+-binding protein specifically expressed in neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages. It can strongly interact with sorcin to form a heterodimer and further modulate the function of sorcin. GCA exists as homodimers in solution. It contains five EF-hand motifs attached to an N-terminal region of an approximately 50 residue-long segment rich in glycines and prolines. In contrast with sorcin, GCA binds two Ca2+ ions through its EF1 and EF3 hands.

Penta-EF hand, calcium binding motifs, found in grancalcin; Grancalcin (GCA) is a cytosolic Ca2+-binding protein specifically expressed in neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages. It displays a Ca2+-dependent translocation to granules and plasma membrane upon neutrophil activation, suggesting roles in granule-membrane fusion and degranulation of neutrophils. It may also play a role in the regulation of vesicle/granule exocytosis through the reversible binding of secretory vesicles and plasma membranes upon the presence of calcium. Moreover, GCA is involved in inflammation, as well as in the process of adhesion of neutrophils to fibronectin. It plays a key role in leukocyte-specific functions that are responsible for host defense, and affects the function of integrin receptors on immune cells through binding to L-plastin in the absence of calcium. Furthermore, GCA can strongly interact with sorcin to form a heterodimer, and further modulate the function of sorcin. GCA exists as homodimers in solution. It contains five EF-hand motifs attached to an N-terminal region of an approximately 50 residue-long segment rich in glycines and prolines. GCA binds two Ca2+ ions through its EF1 and EF3 hands.

Penta-EF hand, calcium binding motifs, found in PEF calpain family; The PEF calpain family belongs to the second group of penta-EF hand (PEF) proteins. It includes classical (also called conventional or typical) calpain (referring to a calcium-dependent papain-like enzymes, EC 3.4.22.17) large catalytic subunits (CAPN1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14) and two calpain small subunits (CAPNS1 and CAPNS2), which are largely confined to animals (metazoans). These PEF-containing are nonlysosomal intracellular calcium-activated intracellular cysteine proteases that play important roles in the degradation or functional modulation in a variety of substrates in response to calcium signalling. The classical mu- and m-calpains are heterodimers consisting of homologous but a distinct (large) L-subunit/chain (CAPN1 or CAPN2) and a common (small) S-subunit/chain (CAPNS1 or CAPNS2). These L-subunits (CAPN1 and CAPN2) and S-subunit CAPNS1 are ubiquitously found in all tissues. Other calpains likely consist of an isolated L-subunit/chain alone. Many of them, such as CAPNS2, CAPN3 (in skeletal muscle, or lens), CAPN8 (in stomach), CAPN9 (in digestive tracts), CAPN11 (in testis), CAPN12 (in follicles), are tissue-specific and have specific functions in distinct organs. The L-subunits of similar structure (called CALPA and B) also have been found in Drosophila melanogaster. The S-subunit seems to have a chaperone-like function for proper folding of the L-subunit. The catalytic L-subunits contain a short N-terminal anchor helix, followed by a calpain cysteine protease (CysPc) domain, a C2-domain-like (C2L) domain, and a C-terminal Ca2+-binding penta-EF-hand (PEF) domain. The S-subunits only have the PEF domain following an N-terminal Gly-rich hydrophobic domain. The calpains undergo a rearrangement of the protein backbone upon Ca2+-binding.

Penta-EF hand, calcium binding motifs, found in calcium-dependent protease small subunit CAPNS1 and CAPNS2; CAPNS1, also termed calpain small subunit 1 (CSS1), or calcium-activated neutral proteinase small subunit (CANP small subunit), or calcium-dependent protease small subunit (CDPS), or calpain regulatory subunit, is a common 28-kDa regulatory calpain subunit encoded by the calpain small 1 (Capns1, also known as Capn4) gene. It acts as a binding partner to form a heterodimer with the 80 kDa calpain large catalytic subunit and is required in maintaining the activity of calpain. CAPNS1 plays a significant role in tumor progression of human cancer, and functions as a potential therapeutic target in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), glioma, and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). It may be involved in regulating migration and cell survival through binding to the SH3 domain of Ras GTPase-activating protein (RasGAP). It may also modulate Akt/FoxO3A signaling and apoptosis through PP2A. CAPNS1 contains an N-terminal glycine rich domain and a C-terminal PEF-hand domain. CAPNS2, also termed calpain small subunit 2 (CSS2), is a novel tissue-specific 30 kDa calpain small subunit that lacks two oligo-Gly stretches characteristic of the N-terminal Gly-rich domain of CAPNS1. CAPNS2 acts as a chaperone for the calpain large subunit, and appears to be the functional equivalent of CAPNS1. However, CAPNS2 binds the large subunit much more weakly than CAPNS1 and it does not undergo the autolytic conversion typical of CAPNS1.

Calcium-activated neutral; CAPN3, also termed calcium-activated neutral proteinase 3 (CANP 3), or calpain L3, or calpain p94, or muscle-specific calcium-activated neutral protease 3, or new calpain 1 (nCL-1), is a calpain large subunit that is mainly expressed in skeletal muscle, or lens. The skeletal muscle-specific CAPN3 are pathologically associated with limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A). Its autolytic activity can be positively regulated by calmodulin (CaM), a known transducer of the calcium signal. CAPN3 is also involved in human melanoma tumorigenesis and progression. It impairs cell proliferation and stimulates oxidative stress-mediated cell death in melanoma cells. Moreover, it plays an important role in sarcomere remodeling and mitochondrial protein turnover. Furthermore, the phosphorylated skeletal muscle-specific CAPN3 acts as a myofibril structural component and may participate in myofibril-based signaling pathways. In the eye, the lens-specific CAPN3, together with CAPN2, is responsible for proteolytic cleavages of alpha and beta-crystallin. Overactivated alpha and beta-crystallin can lead to cataract formation. CAPN3 exists as a homodimer, rather than a heterodimer with the calpain small subunit. It may also form heterodimers with other calpain large subunits. CAPN3 contains a long N-terminal region, followed by a calpain cysteine protease (CysPc) domain, a C2-domain-like (C2L) domain, and a C-terminal Ca2+-binding penta-EF-hand (PEF) domain. Ca2+ binding at EF5 of the CAPN3 PEF domain is a distinct feature not observed in other calpain isoforms.

Penta-EF hand, calcium binding motifs, found in calpain-9 (CAPN9); CAPN9, also termed digestive tract-specific calpain, or new calpain 4 (nCL-4), or protein CG36, is a calpain large subunit predominantly expressed in gastrointestinal tract. It plays a physiological role in the suppression of tumorigenesis. It acts as an important biomolecule link for the regression of colorectal cancer via intracellular calcium homeostasis. CAPN9 may also play a critical role in lumen formation. Moreover, CAPN9, together with CAPN8, forms an active protease complex, G-calpain, in which both proteins are essential for stability and activity. The G-Calpain has been implicated in gastric mucosal defense. Furthermore, down-regulation of calpain 9 has been linked to hypertensive heart and kidney disease in salt-sensitive Dahl rats. CAPN9 contains a short N-terminal anchor helix, followed by a calpain cysteine protease (CysPc) domain, a C2-domain-like (C2L) domain, and a C-terminal Ca2+-binding penta-EF-hand (PEF) domain.

Penta-EF hand, calcium binding motifs, found in mu-type calpain (CAPN1); CAPN1, also termed calpain-1 80-kDa catalytic subunit, or calpain-1 large subunit, or micromolar-calpain (muCANP), or calcium-activated neutral proteinase 1 (CANP 1), or cell proliferation-inducing gene 30 protein, is a ubiquitously expressed 80-kDa Ca2+-dependent intracellular cysteine protease that contains a short N-terminal anchor helix, followed by a calpain cysteine protease (CysPc) domain, a C2-domain-like (C2L) domain, and a C-terminal Ca2+-binding penta-EF-hand (PEF) domain. The catalytic subunit CAPN1 in complex with a regulatory subunit encoded by CAPNS1 forms a mu-calpain heterodimer. CAPN1 plays a central role in postmortem proteolysis and meat tenderization processes, as well as in regulation of proliferation and survival of skeletal satellite cells. It also acts as a novel regulator in IgE-mediated mast cell activation and could serve as a potential therapeutic target for the management of allergic inflammation. Moreover, CAPN1 is involved in neutrophil motility and functions as a potential target for intervention in inflammatory disease. It also facilitates age-associated aortic wall calcification and fibrosis through the regulation of matrix metalloproteinase 2 activity in vascular smooth muscle cells, and thus plays a role in hypertension and atherosclerosis. The proteolytic cleavage of beta-amyloid precursor protein and tau protein by CAPN1 may be involved in plaque formation. Furthermore, CAPN1 is activated in the brains of individuals with Alzheimer's disease. It is involved in the maintenance of a proliferative neural stem cell pool. The activation and macrophage inflammation of CAPN1 in hypercholesterolemic nephropathy is promoted by nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha1 (nAChRalpha1). In addition, CAPN1 displays a functional role in hemostasis, as well as in sickle cell disease.

EF-hand, calcium binding motif, found in alpha-parvalbumin; Alpha-parvalbumin is cytosolic Ca2+/Mg2+-binding protein expressed mainly in fast-twitch skeletal myofibrils, where it may act as a soluble relaxing factor facilitating the Ca2+-mediated relaxation phase. It is also expressed in rapidly firing neurons, particularly GABA-ergic neurons, and thus may confer protection against Ca2+ toxicity. The major role of alpha-parvalbumin is metal buffering and transport of Ca2+. It binds different metal cations, and exhibits very high affinity for Ca2+ and physiologically significant affinity for Mg2+. Alpha-parvalbumin is characterized by the presence of three consecutive EF-hand motifs (helix-loop-helix) called AB, CD, and EF, but only CD and EF can chelate metal ions, such as Ca2+ and Mg2+. Both metal ion-binding sites in alpha-parvalbumin are high-affinity sites. Additionally, in contrast to beta-parvalbumin, alpha-parvalbumin is less acidic and has an additional residue in the C-terminal helix.

EF-hand, calcium binding motif, found in calretinin (CR); CR, also termed 29 kDa calbindin, is a cytosolic hexa-EF-hand calcium-binding protein predominantly expressed in a variety of normal and tumorigenic t specific neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system. It possibly functions as a calcium buffer, calcium sensor, and apoptosis regulator, which may be implicated in many biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and cell death. CR contains six EF-hand motifs within two independent domains, CR I-II and CR III-VI. CR I-II consists of EF-hand motifs 1 and 2, and CR III-VI consists of EF-hand motifs 3-6. The first 5 EF-hand motifs are capable of binding calcium ions, while the EF-hand 6 is inactive. Thus, CR has two pairs of cooperative binding sites (I-II and III-IV), which display high affinity calcium-binding sites, and one independent calcium ion-binding site (V), which displays lower affinity binding.

EF-hand motif found in eukaryotic phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC, EC 3.1.4.11) isozymes; PI-PLC isozymes are signaling enzymes that hydrolyze the membrane phospholipids phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) to generate two important second messengers in eukaryotic signal transduction cascades, Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). InsP3 triggers inflow of calcium from intracellular stores, while DAG, together with calcium, activates protein kinase C, which goes on to phosphorylate other molecules, leading to altered cellular activity. Calcium is required for the catalysis. This family corresponds to the four EF-hand motifs containing PI-PLC isozymes, including PI-PLC-beta (1-4), -gamma (1-2), -delta (1,3,4), -epsilon (1), -zeta (1), eta (1-2). Lower eukaryotes such as yeast and slime molds contain only delta-type isozymes. In contrast, other types of isoforms present in higher eukaryotes. This family also includes 1-phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase 1 (PLC1) from fungi. Some homologs from plants contain only two atypical EF-hand motifs and they are not included. All PI-PLC isozymes except sperm-specific PI-PLC-zeta share a core set of domains, including an N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, four atypical EF-hand motifs, a PLC catalytic core, and a single C2 domain. PI-PLC-zeta lacks the PH domain. The PLC catalytic core domain is a TIM barrel with two highly conserved regions (X and Y) split by a highly degenerate linker sequence. Most of EF-hand motifs found in PI-PLCs consist of a helix-loop-helix structure, but lack residues critical to metal binding. Moreover, the EF-hand region of most of PI-PLCs may have an important regulatory function, but it has yet to be identified. However, PI-PLC-zeta is a key exception. It is responsible for Ca2+ oscillations in fertilized oocytes and exhibits a high sensitivity to Ca2+ mediated through its EF-hand domain. In addition, PI-PLC-eta2 shows a canonical EF-loop directing Ca2+-sensitivity and thus can amplify transient Ca2+ signals. Also it appears that PI-PLC-delta1 can regulate the binding of PH domain to PIP2 in a Ca2+-dependent manner through its functionally important EF-hand domains. PI-PLCs can be activated by a variety of extracellular ligands, such as growth factors, hormones, cytokines and lipids. Their activation has been implicated in tumorigenesis and/or metastasis linked to migration, proliferation, growth, inflammation, angiogenesis and actin cytoskeleton reorganization. PI-PLC-beta isozymes are activated by G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) through different mechanisms. However, PI-PLC-gamma isozymes are activated by receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), such as Rho and Ras GTPases. In contrast, PI-PLC-epsilon are activated by both GPCR and RTK. PI-PLC-delta1 and PLC-eta 1 are activated by GPCR-mediated calcium mobilization. The activation mechanism for PI-PLC-zeta remains unclear.

EF-hand, calcium binding motif, found in beta-parvalbumin; Beta-parvalbumin, also termed Oncomodulin-1 (OM), is a small calcium-binding protein that is expressed in hepatomas, as well as in the blastocyst and the cytotrophoblasts of the placenta. It is also found to be expressed in the cochlear outer hair cells of the organ of Corti and frequently expressed in neoplasms. Mammalian beta-parvalbumin is secreted by activated macrophages and neutrophils. It may function as a tissue-specific Ca2+-dependent regulatory protein, and may also serve as a specialized cytosolic Ca2+ buffer. Beta-parvalbumin acts as a potent growth-promoting signal between the innate immune system and neurons in vivo. It has high and specific affinity for its receptor on retinal ganglion cells (RGC) and functions as the principal mediator of optic nerve regeneration. It exerts its effects in a cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent manner and can further elevate intracellular cAMP levels. Moreover, beta-parvalbumin is associated with efferent function and outer hair cell electromotility, and can identify different hair cell types in the mammalian inner ear. Beta-parvalbumin is characterized by the presence of three consecutive EF-hand motifs (helix-loop-helix) called AB, CD, and EF, but only CD and EF can chelate metal ions, such as Ca2+ and Mg2+. The EF site displays a high-affinity for Ca2+/Mg2+, and the CD site is a low-affinity Ca2+-specific site. In addition, beta-parvalbumin is distinguished from other parvalbumins by its unusually low isoelectric point (pI = 3.1) and sequence eccentricities (e.g., Y57-L58-D59 instead of F57-I58-E59).

EF hand; The EF-hands can be divided into two classes: signalling proteins and buffering/transport proteins. The first group is the largest and includes the most well-known members of the family such as calmodulin, troponin C and S100B. These proteins typically undergo a calcium-dependent conformational change which opens a target binding site. The latter group is represented by calbindin D9k and do not undergo calcium dependent conformational changes.

EF-hand, calcium binding motif, found in Drosophila melanogaster calbindin-32 (CBN) and similar proteins; CBN, the product of the cbn gene, is a Drosophila homolog to vertebrate neuronal six EF-hand calcium binding proteins. It is expressed through most of ontogenesis with a selective distribution in the nervous system and in a few small adult thoracic muscles. Its precise biological role remains unclear. CBN contains six EF-hand motifs, but some of them may not bind calcium ions due to the lack of key residues.
