Function
Ca2+/Calmodulin dependent protein kinase (CaMK) are mammalian calmodulin-dependent calcium-dependent protein kinases activated by elevation of Ca+2 and calmodulin concentration to phosphorylate Ser and Thr.
- CaMKI is a specialized CaM kinase.
- CaMKII is multifunctional kinase.
- CaMKIII phosphorylates eukaryotic elongation factor 2.
- CASK is a membrane associated CaMK.
- DAPK is a death-associated CaMK which protects cells from some programmed cell death.
For details see Calcium-dependent protein kinase.
Structural highlights
CAMKII contains an N-terminal catalytic domain which binds ATP and substrate protein, regulatory domain (CBD) and association domain (ASD). DAPK contains a regulatory (RD) and autoinhibitory (AD) domains. The activity of human CamKII is regulated by autophosphorylation of Thr 286 and Thr 305 (T305 is not in the pdb file). [1]
