The atypical calpains: evolutionary analyses and roles in Caenorhabditis elegans cellular degeneration.
The calpains are physiologically important Ca(2+)-activated regulatory proteases, which are divided into typical or atypical sub-families based on constituent domains. Both sub-families are present in mammals, but our understanding of calpain function is based primarily on typical sub-family members...
