Calcb Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable calcitonin receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human CALCB (calcitonin related polypeptide beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Calcb often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
