Calcium Binding Proteins: Calmodulin Calcium binding proteins regulate many important cellular processes such as smooth muscle contraction and the crossbridge motion in skeletal muscle. Calmodulin is a rather ubiquitous calcium-sensing protein belonging to a class of loop-helix-loop cation binding proteins of similar structure and function. Calmodulin is highly conserved in eukaryotes and is considered to be a multifunctional protein because of its ability to interact and regulate the activity of a number of other proteins (Hepler and Wayne, ; Gilroy et al., ; Poovaiah and Reddy, ; Trewavas and Knight, ).In plant cells, calmodulin is considered to be the primary sensor for changes in cellular free Ca 2+ levels.
Ca 2+ and Membrane Permeability. It has also been known for many years that Ca 2+ plays an important role in controlling membrane structure and function (Wyn Jones and Lunt, ; Burstrom, ).A general idea is that Ca 2+, by binding to phospholipids, stabilizes lipid bilayers and thus provides structural integrity to cellular a physiological point of view, a frequent. 5. Na+ moves into the muscle cell because Ach receptors are activated 6. Action-potential of the muscle cell is generated 7. action potential travels down the t-tubules 8. .
Dictyostelium discoideum is gaining increasing attention as a model organism for the study of calcium binding and calmodulin function in basic biological events as well as human diseases. After a short overview of calcium-binding proteins, the structure of Dictyostelium calmodulin and the conformational changes effected by calcium ion binding to its four EF hands are compared to its human Author: Danton H. O’Day, Ryan J. Taylor, Michael A. Myre. The small, calcium-sensor protein, calmodulin, is ubiquitously expressed and central to cell function in all cell types. Here the literature linking calmodulin to Alzheimer’s disease is reviewed. Several experimentally-verified calmodulin-binding proteins are involved in the formation of amyloid-β plaques including amyloid-β protein Cited by:

This book is about the role of calcium and calmodulin in the cell nucleus. Calcium, which is an important second messenger of signal transduction pathways, can also operate in the cell nucleus. Different calcium binding proteins, which are the targets of cellular calcium, have been identified in the nucleus of many different cell types.

This review examines the principles of Ca2+ signaling, from changes in protein conformations driven by Ca2+ to the mechanisms that control Ca2+ levels in the cytoplasm and organelles. Also discussed is the highly localized nature of Ca2+-mediated signal transduction and its specific roles in excitability, exocytosis, motility.

CaMKK2: Structure and Function. CaMKK2 is a 66–kDa kinase in rat, mouse, and man (9, –, 14).Analysis of CaMKK2 cDNA clones revealed a >90% species similarity in the amino acid coding region but with heterogeneity in the 3′-noncoding termini (12, –, 14).Similar to other CaMK family members, CaMKK2 consists of unique N- and C-terminal domains and a central Ser/Thr-directed.
Calcium (Ca2+) signaling and dynamic reorganization of the cytoskeleton are essential processes for the coordination and control of plant cell shape and cell growth.

In the presence of calcium, calmodulin was also shown to be able to facilitate movement of large molecules into the nucleus.
