Molecular and Structural Basis of Target Recognition by Calmodulin

Crivici, A, Ikura, M·1995·Annual Review of Biophysics and Biomolecular Structure

Abstract

Calmodulin (CaM) acts as an intracellular calcium sensor that translates the Ca2+ signal into a variety of cellular processes. Ca(2+)-CaM recognition of a short polypeptide segment in target proteins induces conformational changes in both CaM and the target, enabling the target protein to become functionally active. The solution and crystal structures of Ca(2+)-CaM bound to peptides derived from three CaM-dependent enzymes reveal structural features that are common in target recognition by Ca(2+)-CaM. Phosphorylation of the target proteins at sites in or near the CaM-binding region modulates binding of CaM, thereby providing an additional mechanism of functional regulation. The structural aspects of target recognition by Ca(2+)-CaM are discussed using mainly the three-dimensional structural information obtained with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction methods.

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.
