Calumenin, also known as CALU, is a multiple EF-hand calcium-binding protein located in endoplasmic reticulum(ER) and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of mammalian tissues. This protein binds 7 calcium ions with a low affinity and is involved in such ER functions as protein folding and sorting. Source: Recombinant human Calumenin protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli.
