S100 alpha also known as S100A1 among other S100 family proteins plays a role in calcium ion binding which influences various cellular processes. It is a small protein with a molecular mass around 10-12 kDa. S100 alpha expresses abundantly in the brain heart and skeletal muscle indicating its functional importance in these tissues.
Biological function summary

The S100 calcium-binding proteins like S100 alpha modulate the function of target proteins through interactions dependent on the calcium bound state. S100 alpha does not commonly form larger complexes but instead interacts directly with other proteins to exert its effects. Importantly it regulates activities such as phosphorylation enzyme activity and cellular proliferation and differentiation.

Pathways

S100 alpha integrates into the intracellular pathways that mediate calcium signaling and respond to oxidative stress. Notably it is involved in the regulation of the RAGE (Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-products) pathway and related NF-kB pathway both of which lead to inflammatory responses. Through these pathways S100 alpha is related to several proteins like p53 and those involved in cytoskeletal dynamics.

S100 alpha demonstrates relevance in conditions linked to aberrant calcium signaling and inflammation such as cardiomyopathy and certain neurodegenerative disorders. In cardiomyopathy alterations of S100 alpha affect cardiac contractility and contribute to heart failure. In neurodegenerative disorders the protein's interaction with RAGE and subsequent pathways possibly accelerates neuronal damage. The protein links with other S100 family members such as S100B further influencing disease progression.

Target data

Small calcium binding protein that plays important roles in several biological processes such as Ca(2+) homeostasis, chondrocyte biology and cardiomyocyte regulation (PubMed : 12804600). In response to an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) levels, binds calcium which triggers conformational changes (PubMed : 23351007). These changes allow interactions with specific target proteins and modulate their activity (PubMed : 22399290). Regulates a network in cardiomyocytes controlling sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) cycling and mitochondrial function through interaction with the ryanodine receptors RYR1 and RYR2, sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase/ATP2A2 and mitochondrial F1-ATPase (PubMed : 12804600). Facilitates diastolic Ca(2+) dissociation and myofilament mechanics in order to improve relaxation during diastole (PubMed : 11717446).
