Background Information

PVALB is a high affinity calcium ion-binding protein that is structurally and functionally similar to calmodulin and troponin C. PVALB is expressed in high levels only in fast-contracting muscles and at lower levels in brain and several endocrine tissues. It is thought to be involved in muscle relaxation.
