Synonyms: Grancalcin, GCA, GCL
Tissue Specificity: Detected in neutrophils and macrophages (at protein level). Highly expressed in bone marrow.
Background: Grancalcin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GCA gene. This gene is mapped to 2q24.2. This gene product, grancalcin, is a calcium-binding protein abundant in neutrophils and macrophages. It belongs to the penta-EF-hand subfamily of proteins which includes sorcin, calpain, and ALG-2. Grancalcin localization is dependent upon calcium and magnesium. In the absence of divalent cation, grancalcin localizes to the cytosolic fraction, with magnesium alone, it partitions with the granule fraction, and in the presence of magnesium and calcium, it associates with both the granule and membrane fractions, suggesting a role for grancalcin in granule-membrane fusion and degranulation.
