ID:CASA1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Alpha-S1-casein; Contains: RecName: Full=Casoxin-D; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Important role in the capacity of milk to transport calcium phosphate. FUNCTION: Casoxin D acts as opioid antagonist and has vasorelaxing activity mediated by bradykinin B1 receptors. SUBUNIT: Heteromultimers of alpha-s1 casein and kappa-casein; disulfide-linked. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Mammary gland specific. Secreted in milk. PTM: Not glycosylated. MISCELLANEOUS: In milk, the alpha s1- and beta-caseins precipitate in presence of calcium (so-called calcium-sensitive caseins). Kappa-casein prevents the precipitation of the other caseins by calcium through the formation of large stable colloidal particles termed micelles. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the alpha-casein family.

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
