Calmodulin activates prokaryotic adenylate cyclase.
Open accessAbstract
The adenylate cyclase of Bordetella pertussis is stimulated 100- to 1000-fold in a dose-dependent manner by calf brain calmodulin. The system has the following properties. (i) The activation is prevented by ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid and restored by Ca2+. (ii) Oxidation of the methionine residues of calmodulin abolishes the ability to activate the cyclase. (iii) Trifluoperazine inhibits calmodulin-activated cyclase. (iv) A troponin C preparation stimulates the B. pertussis cyclase with < 0.01 the potency of calmodulin. Although calmodulin has not been demonstrated in prokaryotes, this is an example of a (eukaryotic) calmodulin effect in a prokaryote.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
