Calpain A
Definition:
EC Tree > 3 Hydrolases > 3.4 Acting on peptide bonds (peptidases) > 3.4.22 Cysteine endopeptidases > 3.4.22.B36 calpain A
Calpain A is a Drosophila melanogaster calpain-family cysteine protease, with broad endopeptidase specificity. In the fly it participates in embryonic development, cytoskeletal remodeling and the regulation of Notch and innate-immune signaling. It features a calpain-like catalytic fold related to vertebrate calpains.
