A recombinant partial protein sequence (within amino acids 1-92) from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the S100A5 antibody.
S-100A5 (S100 calcium binding protein A5) is a 92 amino acid protein that belongs to the S-100 family. Containing two EF-hand domains, S-100A5 binds calcium, zinc and copper. One subunit can simultaneously bind two calcium ions or two copper ions plus one zinc ion. Calcium and copper ions compete for the same binding sites on the S-100A5 protein.
