RCAN3

RCAN3 is a gene that in humans encodes the Calcipressin-3 protein.

Calcipressin-1, which shares a similar function to Calcipressin-3. Both repress calcineurin.

Calcipressin-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RCAN3 gene and is a member of the Calcipressin family of proteins.[5][6]

Expression

RCAN3 is highly expressed in the Cerebellar Hemisphere, Prostrate, and the Mucosa of the esophagus.[7]

Orthologs

RCAN3 was present in the common ancestor of all animals. As a result, orthologs are present in other species, including mice (Rcan3), chickens (RCAN3), and zebrafish (rcan3).[8]

Clinical Significance

Calcipressin-3, along with the other two Calcipressin proteins have been identified as possible contributing factors to Down Syndrome in humans.[9]

gollark: ?tag create blub Graham considers a hypothetical Blub programmer. When the programmer looks down the "power continuum", he considers the lower languages to be less powerful because they miss some feature that a Blub programmer is used to. But when he looks up, he fails to realise that he is looking up: he merely sees "weird languages" with unnecessary features and assumes they are equivalent in power, but with "other hairy stuff thrown in as well". When Graham considers the point of view of a programmer using a language higher than Blub, he describes that programmer as looking down on Blub and noting its "missing" features from the point of view of the higher language.
