Calmodulin (CALM1) Antibody – Mouse Monoclonal

This gene encodes a member of the EF-hand calcium-binding protein family. It is one of three genes which encode an identical calcium binding protein which is one of the four subunits of phosphorylase kinase. Two pseudogenes have been identified on chromosome 7 and X. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Calmodulin: a calcium-binding small regulatory protein that mediates the control of a large number of enzymes by Ca(2+). Among the enzymes to be stimulated by the calmodulin-Ca(2+) complex are a number of protein kinases and phosphatases. Has four functional calcium-binding domains. Phosphorylation and ubiquitination result in a decreased activity.
