S100P is a member of the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. S100 proteins show variable cell-type-specific expression pattern. This protein was isolated from human placenta and given the designation 鈥淧鈥.
Alternative names: S100 calcium-binding protein P, MIG9
