CABP5

---

Description

The CABP5 (calcium binding protein 5) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 19.

CABP5 inhibits the inactivation of L-type calcium channels, altering their activation threshold. It also plays a role in transmitting light signals. Furthermore, CABP5 potentially regulates the endocytosis and exocytosis of neurotransmitter vesicles, influenced by salt concentrations. It may also contribute to the growth and organization of neuronal extensions (neurites).

CABP5 is also known as CABP3.
