spinqualitylabelsall models Human calreticulin (gold) complex with β-microglobulin (green), tapasin (pink), protein disulfide-isomerase (yellow) MHC class I antigen (cyan) (PDB code 6eny) Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image Contents 1 Function 2 Disease 3 Relevance 4 Structural highlights Function Calreticulin (CALR) is a multifunction calcium-binding chaperone. CALR is a molecular chaperone, an extracellular lectin, an intracellular mediator of integrin function, an inhibitor of steroid hormone-regulated gene expression and a C1q-binding protein[1]. Disease Most patients with essential thrombocythemia or primary myelofibrosis not associated with JAK2 or MPL mutation have CALR mutation[2]. Relevance CALR is active in regulating intracellular Ca+2 homeostasis[3]. Structural highlights CALR structure consists of 3 domains: N-terminal globular domain which has chaperone function; P-domain which is proline-rich, binds Ca+2 with high affinity and possesses a lectin-like chaperone function; C-terminal domain containing an ER retention signal.
