SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION extracellular
basic FUNCTION
  • may be similar to that of authentic calmodulin and may actually compete with calmodulin by binding, with different affinities, to cellular substrates
  • CALML3 functions to increase translation of MYO10 possibly by acting as a chaperone for the emerging MYO10 heavy chain protein
  • epithelial-specific Ca(2+)-binding protein that is regulated during terminal keratinocyte differentiation

    protein
  • phenylalanine-795 in the third IQ domain (IQ3) of MYO10 is critical for CALML3 binding
  • increased CALML3 expression and CALML3-mediated MYO10 function are important for skin differentiation and wound reepithelialization
  • when co-expressed in oocytes, CALML3 rendered KCNQ1 channels resistant to the voltage-dependent depletion of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate by voltage-sensitive phosphatase

    Marker
  • could be used as marker for the various phases of oral tumor progression in oral cancer
  • useful marker for normal and benign hyperplastic epidermal development, whereas the loss of nuclear CALML3 indicates progression to a proliferative and potentially malignant phenotype
  • Therapy target
