Calcium/Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase
From Proteopedia
Ca2+/Calmodulin dependent protein kinase (CaMK) phosphorylates Ser and Thr. It is regulated by Ca2+/Calmodulin (CaM). It contains an N-terminal catalytic domain, regulatory domain (CBD) and association domain (ASD). CaMKI is a specialized CaM kinase while CaMKII is multifunctional kinase. CASK is a membrane associated CaMK. DAPK is a death-associated CaMK which protects cells from some programmed cell death. It contains a regulatory (RD) and autoinhibitory (AD) domains. The images at the left and at the right correspond to one representative CaMK, i.e. crystal structure of human native membrane associated Ca2+/Calmodulin dependent protein kinase (3mfr).
