calcb

This is the community wiki page for the gene calcb please feel free to add any information that is relevant to this gene that is not already captured elsewhere in Xenbase.

nomenclature updates

14MAY2026

Xenopus gene nomenclature was updated to follow the names of human orthologs as assessed by NCBI, calca, calcitonin-related polypeptide alpha to calcb, calcitonin-related polypeptide beta .

Synteny supports this change as the CALB mammalian genes read in same direction as frog CALCB genes.

Note that Xenopus therefore does not have calca/L/S genes.

Note that Chick also had their ‘Calcb’ gene annotated as ‘Calca’. This is will evenetually be updated we hope!
