| Gene Symbol | CALCA |
| Gene Full Name | Calcitonin Related Polypeptide Alpha |
| Background | This gene encodes the peptide hormones calcitonin, calcitonin gene-related peptide and katacalcin by tissue-specific alternative RNA splicing of the gene transcripts and cleavage of inactive precursor proteins. Calcitonin is involved in calcium regulation and acts to regulate phosphorus metabolism. Calcitonin gene-related peptide functions as a vasodilator and as an antimicrobial peptide while katacalcin is a calcium-lowering peptide. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2014] |
| Function | Calcitonin causes a rapid but short-lived drop in the level of calcium and phosphate in blood by promoting the incorporation of those ions in the bones.Katacalcin is a potent plasma calcium-lowering peptide. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Secreted. [UniProt] |
