👉 A balanophorin is a protein that plays a crucial role in regulating the balance of calcium and phosphate ions within cells. Balanophorins are found in several different types of cells, including muscle cells, kidney cells, and neurons. They function by binding to specific ion channels on the cell membrane, which then regulate the movement of calcium and phosphate ions across the cell membrane. By controlling the flow of these ions, balanophorins can influence various physiological processes such as muscle
