* Information From OMIM

Description: The calpains, or calcium-activated neutral proteases (EC 3.4.22.17), are nonlysosomal intracellular cysteine proteases. The mammalian calpains include 2 ubiquitous isoforms, calpain I (mu-calpain) and calpain II (m-calpain), 2 stomach-specific proteins, and CAPN3 (OMIM:114240), which is muscle-specific. Calpain I and calpain II are heterodimers with distinct large subunits, encoded by the CAPN1 (OMIM:114220) and CAPN2 genes, respectively, associated with a common small subunit (CAPNS1; OMIM:114170).
