Abstract:Calmodulin (CaM) is a multifunctional calcium-binding protein, which regulates a variety of biochemical processes. CaM acts through its conformational changes and complex formation with its target enzymes. CaM consists of two globular domains (N-lobe and C-lobe) linked by an extended linker region. Upon calcium binding, the N-lobe and C-lobe undergo local conformational changes, followed by a major conformational change of the entire CaM to wrap the target enzyme. However, the regulation mechanisms, such as al… Show more
