Calmodulin (CaM) is recognized as a major calcium sensor and orchestrator of regulatory
events through its interaction with a diverse group of cellular proteins. Many investigations …

The IQ motif is widely distributed in both myosins and non-myosins and is quite common in
the database that includes more than 900 Pfam entries. An examination of IQ motif …

Elevated intracellular Ca 2+ triggers inactivation of L-type calcium channels, providing
negative Ca 2+ feedback in many cells. Ca 2+ binding to the main α 1C channel subunit has …

▪ Abstract Calmodulin is a small Ca2+-binding protein that acts to transduce second
messenger signals into a wide array of cellular responses. Plant calmodulins share many …

Scallops: Biology, Ecology, Aquaculture and Fisheries, Third Edition, continues its history as
the definitive resource on scallops, covering all facets of scallop biology, including anatomy …

Acute modulation of P/Q-type (α1A) calcium channels by neuronal activity-dependent
changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentration may contribute to short-term synaptic plasticity …

Intracellular Ca2+ is normally maintained at submicromolar levels but increases during
many forms of cellular stimulation. This increased Ca2+ binds to receptor proteins such as …

The small bilobal calcium regulatory protein calmodulin (CaM) activates numerous target
enzymes in response to transient changes in intracellular calcium concentrations. Binding of …

The EF‐hand motif, which assumes a helix‐loop‐helix structure normally responsible for
Ca2+ binding, is found in a large number of functionally diverse Ca2+ binding proteins …

Calmodulin regulates diverse Ca 2+-dependent cellular processes, including cell cycle
progression and cytoskeletal rearrangement. A recently identified calmodulin-binding …
