Supplementary information

Calpastatin also known as CAST is a specific inhibitor of calpain a calcium-dependent cysteine protease. Calpastatin has an approximate mass of 86 kDa and is expressed in various tissues throughout the body including the brain and muscle tissue. Its expression ensures the tight regulation of calpain activity allowing appropriate control of cellular processes which calpain influences through proteolysis.
Biological function summary

Calpastatin acts to regulate calpain's protease activity within cells. It achieves this by directly binding with and inhibiting the activated form of calpain therefore preventing unwanted proteolysis of substrates. Calpastatin does not function as an isolated protein but often forms part of larger protein complexes. Through these interactions calpastatin modulates activities important for cellular homeostasis differentiation and apoptosis.

Pathways

Several cellular pathways integrate calpastatin function owing to its modulation of calpain activity. The calcium signaling pathway significantly involves calpastatin as its inhibition of calpain helps balance cellular responses to changes in calcium ion concentrations. Calpastatin is also closely related to the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway given that calpain can process proteins involved in this regulatory pathway influencing protein degradation and cell cycle progression.

Calpastatin has implications in muscular dystrophies and neurodegenerative diseases. In conditions like muscular dystrophy calpastatin may become dysregulated leading to excessive calpain activity that damages muscle protein structures. Calpastatin's dysregulation is also linked with Alzheimer's disease where aberrant calpain activation appears to contribute to neuronal damage. Understanding how calpastatin interacts with these pathways provides insight into potential therapeutic targets such as calpain in these diseases.
