MODULATION OF CALMODULIN PLASTICITY IN MOLECULAR RECOGNITION ON THE BASIS OF X-RAY STRUCTURES
OverviewOverview
Calmodulin is the primary calcium-dependent signal transducer and, regulator of a wide variety of essential cellular functions. The structure, of calcium-calmodulin bound to the peptide corresponding to the, calmodulin-binding domain of brain calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II, alpha was determined to 2 angstrom resolution. A comparison to two other, calcium-calmodulin structures reveals how the central helix unwinds in, order to position the two domains optimally in the recognition of, different target enzymes and clarifies the role of calcium in maintaining, recognition-competent domain structures.
