NCS-1 (for neuronal calcium sensor-1, also designated frequenin) belongs to a highly conserved family of EF-hand-containing Ca++-binding proteins expressed mainly in neurons. NCS-1 is localized to neuronal cell bodies and axons throughout the brain and spinal cord. It is also expressed in glial cells and in neuroendocrine bovine adrenal chromaffin and PC12 cells. NCS-1 is a regulatory protein involved in Ca++-dependent exocytosis of synaptic vesicles and dense core granules. NCS-1 also functions in the voltage-independent autocrine pathway that negatively regulates non-L-type Ca++ channels.
