In molecular biology, copines is a name for the group of human proteins CPNE1, CPNE4, CPNE6, and CPNE8.[1][2] These are highly conserved, calcium-dependent membrane proteins found in a variety of eukaryotes.[3] The domain structure of these proteins suggests that suggest they may have a role in membrane trafficking.
