S100A8  
    


    
      Official symbol:  S100A8
      Full name:  S100 calcium binding protein A8
      Location:  1q21.3
      Also known as:  60B8AG, MRP8, P8, CAGA, CFAG, CGLA
      Entrez ID:  6279
      Ensembl ID:  ENSG00000143546
      Summary:  The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. S100 genes include at least 13 members which are located as a cluster on chromosome 1q21. This protein may function in the inhibition of casein kinase and as a cytokine. Altered expression of this protein is associated with the disease cystic fibrosis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
