HPCA Calcium-binding protein that may play a role in the regulation of voltage-dependent calcium channels. May also play a role in cyclic-nucleotide-mediated signaling through the regulation of adenylate and guanylate cyclases. Belongs to the recoverin family. Brain specific. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
