Description

The S100A16 (S100 calcium binding protein A16) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.

S100A16 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the S100A16 gene.

S100A16 is a calcium-binding protein that binds one calcium ion per monomer. It can promote differentiation of adipocytes in vitro. Overexpression in preadipocytes increases their proliferation, enhances adipogenesis and reduces insulin-stimulated glucose uptake.

S100A16 is also known as AAG13, DT1P1A7, S100F.
