Entrez Gene Summary:
Calmodulin is the archetype of the family of calcium-modulated proteins of which nearly 20 members have been found. They are identified by their occurrence in the cytosol or on membranes facing the cytosol and by a high affinity for calcium. Calmodulin contains 149 amino acids and has 4 calcium-binding domains. Its functions include roles in growth and the cell cycle as well as in signal transduction and the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters.[supplied by OMIM]
UniProt Summary:
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P62158 # Calmodulin mediates the control of a large number of enzymes and other proteins by Ca(2+). Among the enzymes to be stimulated by the calmodulin-Ca(2+) complex are a number of protein kinases and phosphatases.
SIZE: 149 amino acids; 16838 Da
SUBUNIT: Interacts with TTN/titin and SRY.
PTM: Ubiquitination results in a strongly decreased activity (By similarity). & Phosphorylation results in a decreased activity (By similarity).
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P62158 ## Belongs to the calmodulin family. & Contains 4 EF-hand domains.
MISCELLANEOUS: This protein has four functional calcium-binding sites.

Protein/Isoform Description:
Calmodulin is the principal intracellular calcium receptor. It is an acidic protein of 148 residues, and upon binding Ca2+, it in turn binds to short peptide sequences of many target proteins. Such interaction is thought to induce a conformational change on the target, resulting in its activation. Targets include the constitutively expressed nitric oxide synthases, the CaM kinases, and PP2B/Calcineurin.
