Background InformationParvalbumin alpha (UniProt P02625; also known as PV) is encoded by the Pvalb (also known as Pva) gene (Gene ID 25269) in rat species. Parvalbumin alpha is a small (a.a. 2-110; Met1 removed posttranslationally) calcium-binding protein. Parvalbumin alpha is composed almost entirely of two EF-hand domains (a.a. 39-74 & 78-110) and is structurally related to calmodulin and troponin C. Parvalbumin (PV) is present in GABAergic interneurons in the nervous system, especially the reticular thalamus. PV interneurons are a subset of inhibitory GABAergic neurons that control the excitability of post-synaptic pyramidal neurons. Dysfunction or loss of PV interneurons is implicated in cognitive deficits associated with a number of well known psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, and depression.
