Caldesmon is a regulatory protein that interacts with actin, myosin, tropomyosin, and calmodulin. It is found in smooth muscle and other tissues. Caldesmon is useful to distinguish smooth muscle and it is more specific than desmin and muscle specific actin. Caldesmon antibody is a marker to identify epitheloid mesothelioma and it can be used to differentiate uterus leiomyoma from endometrial stroma tumor.
