Calpastatin (CAST) Recombinant Protein | CAST recombinant protein
Recombinant Rabbit Calpastatin (CAST), partial
calpastatin system is involved in numerous membrane fusion events, such as neural vesicle exocytosis and platelet and red-cell aggregation. The encoded protein is also thought to affect the expression levels of genes encoding structural or regulatory proteins. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length natures of only some have been determined.
