Also known as CAPS1MGC126562
Summary
CAPS (calcyphosine, HGNC:1487) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19p13.3, encoding Calcyphosin (Q13938). Calcium-binding protein.
This gene encodes a calcium-binding protein, which may play a role in the regulation of ion transport. A similar protein was first described as a potentially important regulatory protein in the dog thyroid and was termed as R2D5 antigen in rabbit. Alternative splicing of this gene generates two transcript variants.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 5)
- Results demonstrated the ubiquitous overexpressions of E-FABP and CAPS in EC and the correlations to the clinicopathologic parameters. CAPS might be a potential prognostic factor for survival in patients with EC (PMID:18729184)
- These results describe the crystal structure of Ca(2+)-loaded calcyphosine up to 2.65 A resolution and reveal a protein containing two pairs of Ca(2+)-binding EF-hand motifs. (PMID:18775726)
- The calcyphosine crystal diffracted to 2.8 A and belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2, with the unit cell parameters a=70.39 A, b=132.02 A, c=46.20 A. (PMID:19275752)
- The results indicated that the autosomal recessive homozygous mutation, p.Leu127Trpfs, in CAPS might be a maternal effect causative mutation of RPL pathogenesis. (PMID:30339840)
- Calcyphosine promotes the proliferation of glioma cells and serves as a potential therapeutic target. (PMID:34370292)

Genomic neighbors (locus context)
Genes flanking this one on the chromosome (NCBI/Entrez gene neighborhood). Positional context only — some neighbors share regulatory elements (bidirectional promoters, antisense/overlapping transcripts), but chromosomal adjacency is not itself a functional relationship (see Interactions for that).
