Preferred Label : Stromal Interaction Molecules;
MeSH definition : Membrane-associated calcium-binding proteins that are characterized by N-terminal
EF HAND MOTIFS and a STERILE ALPHA MOTIF. They function as sensors of ENDOPLASMIC
RETICULUM calcium levels and translocate from the ER to the plasma membrane to activate
CALCIUM CHANNELS in response to intracellular calcium depletion.;
MeSH synonym : Stromal Interaction Molecule; Interaction Molecule, Stromal; Molecule, Stromal Interaction;
Origin ID : D000071736;
UMLS CUI : C4277721;
