== Disease ==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CALM1_HUMAN CALM1_HUMAN]] The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Mutations in CALM1 are the cause of CPVT4.  The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Mutations in CALM1 are the cause of LQT14. [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CAC1C_HUMAN CAC1C_HUMAN]] Defects in CACNA1C are the cause of Timothy syndrome (TS) [MIM:[http://omim.org/entry/601005 601005]]. TS is a disorder characterized by multiorgan dysfunction including lethal arrhythmias, webbing of fingers and toes, congenital heart disease, immune deficiency, intermittent hypoglycemia, cognitive abnormalities and autism.<ref>PMID:15454078</ref> <ref>PMID:15863612</ref>   Defects in CACNA1C are the cause of Brugada syndrome type 3 (BRGDA3) [MIM:[http://omim.org/entry/611875 611875]]. A heart disease characterized by the association of Brugada syndrome with shortened QT intervals. Brugada syndrome is a tachyarrhythmia characterized by right bundle branch block and ST segment elevation on an electrocardiogram (ECG). It can cause the ventricles to beat so fast that the blood is prevented from circulating efficiently in the body. When this situation occurs (called ventricular fibrillation), the individual will faint and may die in a few minutes if the heart is not reset.<ref>PMID:17224476</ref>  
== Function ==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CALM1_HUMAN CALM1_HUMAN]] Calmodulin mediates the control of a large number of enzymes, ion channels, aquaporins and other proteins through calcium-binding. Among the enzymes to be stimulated by the calmodulin-calcium complex are a number of protein kinases and phosphatases. Together with CCP110 and centrin, is involved in a genetic pathway that regulates the centrosome cycle and progression through cytokinesis (PubMed:16760425). Mediates calcium-dependent inactivation of CACNA1C (PubMed:26969752). Positively regulates calcium-activated potassium channel activity of KCNN2 (PubMed:27165696).<ref>PMID:16760425</ref> <ref>PMID:23893133</ref> <ref>PMID:26969752</ref> <ref>PMID:27165696</ref>  [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CAC1C_HUMAN CAC1C_HUMAN]] Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death. The isoform alpha-1C gives rise to L-type calcium currents. Long-lasting (L-type) calcium channels belong to the 'high-voltage activated' (HVA) group. They are blocked by dihydropyridines (DHP), phenylalkylamines, benzothiazepines, and by omega-agatoxin-IIIA (omega-Aga-IIIA). They are however insensitive to omega-conotoxin-GVIA (omega-CTx-GVIA) and omega-agatoxin-IVA (omega-Aga-IVA). Calcium channels containing the alpha-1C subunit play an important role in excitation-contraction coupling in the heart. The various isoforms display marked differences in the sensitivity to DHP compounds. Binding of calmodulin or CABP1 at the same regulatory sites results in an opposit effects on the channel function.<ref>PMID:8392192</ref> <ref>PMID:7737988</ref> <ref>PMID:9013606</ref> <ref>PMID:9607315</ref> <ref>PMID:12176756</ref> <ref>PMID:17071743</ref>

KEY POINTS: Mutations in the calmodulin protein (CaM) are associated with arrhythmia syndromes. This study focuses on understanding the structural characteristics of CaM disease mutants and their interactions with the voltage-gated calcium channel CaV 1.2. Arrhythmia mutations in CaM can lead to loss of Ca(2+) binding, uncoupling of Ca(2+) binding cooperativity, misfolding of the EF-hands and altered affinity for the calcium channel. These results help us to understand how different CaM mutants have distinct effects on structure and interactions with protein targets to cause disease. ABSTRACT: Calmodulinopathies are life-threatening arrhythmia syndromes that arise from mutations in calmodulin (CaM), a calcium sensing protein whose sequence is completely conserved across all vertebrates. These mutations have been shown to interfere with the function of cardiac ion channels, including the voltage-gated Ca(2+) channel CaV 1.2 and the ryanodine receptor (RyR2), in a mutation-specific manner. The ability of different CaM disease mutations to discriminate between these channels has been enigmatic. We present crystal structures of several C-terminal lobe mutants and an N-terminal lobe mutant in complex with the CaV 1.2 IQ domain, in conjunction with binding assays and complementary structural biology techniques. One mutation (D130G) causes a pathological conformation, with complete separation of EF-hands within the C-lobe and loss of Ca(2+) binding in EF-hand 4. Another variant (Q136P) has severely reduced affinity for the IQ domain, and shows changes in the CD spectra under Ca(2+) -saturating conditions when unbound to the IQ domain. Ca(2+) binding to a pair of EF-hands normally proceeds with very high cooperativity, but we found that N98S CaM can adopt different conformations with either one or two Ca(2+) ions bound to the C-lobe, possibly disrupting the cooperativity. An N-lobe variant (N54I), which causes severe stress-induced arrhythmia, does not show any major changes in complex with the IQ domain, providing a structural basis for why this mutant does not affect function of CaV 1.2. These findings show that different CaM mutants have distinct effects on both the CaM structure and interactions with protein targets, and act via distinct pathological mechanisms to cause disease.

Arrhythmia mutations in calmodulin can disrupt cooperativity of Ca(2+) binding and cause misfolding.,Wang K, Brohus M, Holt C, Overgaard MT, Wimmer R, Van Petegem F J Physiol. 2020 Feb 3. doi: 10.1113/JP279307. PMID:32012279<ref>PMID:32012279</ref>
