Abstract

Calpain-3, also named as skeletal muscle-specific calpain, is a member of the calpain system. Calpain-3 has been shown to be involved in myogenesis and apoptosis, and it also plays a role in protein degradation. This article mainly reviewed the structure, function and physiological activity of calpain-3, combined with recent international research advances, to analyze the roles of calpain-3 in skeletal muscle protein degradation.[Chinese Journal of Animal Nutrition,2011,23(4):542 -545]
