Background: Caveolin-1

Caveolin-1 is a palmitoylated 22 kDa membrane-associated protein in caveolae, the cholesterol-rich invaginations in the plasma membrane involved in vesicular transport and regulation of lipid rafts. Caveolin-1 expression is dysregulated during cancer progression and exhibits both positive and negative effects on tumor progression. The central region of Caveolin-1 (aa 105‑125) is buried in the lipid layer, while the N- and C-terminal flanking regions are exposed to the cytoplasm and interact with many other proteins. Within these cytoplasmic regions, human Caveolin-1 shares 95% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Caveolin-1. Alternate splicing in human, mouse and rat generates an isoform with a deletion of the N-terminal 31 residues.
