Sarcalumenin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SAR gene.[1][2]

Sarcalumenin is a calcium-binding protein that can be found in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of striated muscle.[3] Sarcalumenin is partially responsible for calcium buffering in the lumen of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and helps out calcium pump proteins.[4] Additionally, sarcalumenin is necessary for keeping a normal sinus rhythm during both aerobic and anaerobic exercise activity.[3]
