    Background
    The S100 protein family is a large group of low-molecular-weight calcium-binding proteins (9–14 kDa) unique to vertebrates, first named for their solubility in 100% ammonium sulfate at neutral pH. They are defined by their conserved structure containing two helix–loop–helix motifs, known as EF-hands, which mediate Ca²⁺ and transition metal (Zn²⁺, Cu²⁺, Mn²⁺) binding. These motifs are linked by a flexible hinge region, while sequence variability in the C-terminal extension and hinge contributes to their diverse functions. S100 proteins typically form homo- or heterodimers, a requirement for their full activation. In humans, at least 21–30 isoforms exist, with most clustered on chromosome 1q21 (epidermal differentiation complex) and others dispersed across chromosomes 4, 5, 21, and X. Their expression is cell- and tissue-specific, reflecting highly specialized and often non-redundant functions. Functionally, S100 proteins act both intracellularly and extracellularly: within cells they regulate transcription, cytoskeleton dynamics, calcium homeostasis, energy metabolism, and apoptosis, while secreted S100 proteins bind to receptors such as RAGE and TLR4, triggering NF-κB, JAK-STAT, and MAPK signaling to drive inflammation, immune activation, and tumor progression. Collectively, S100 proteins are multifunctional regulators of cell growth, differentiation, motility, immune response, and stress adaptation, and their dysregulated expression is strongly associated with cancer, inflammatory disorders, and drug resistance.
