The calcium ATPase is a protein composed of | The calcium ATPase is a protein composed of 994 aminoacids. | ||
The protein is very rich in <scene name='60/604489/Alpha_regions/1'>alpha helices regions</scene>, it contains 47% of helical regions and 16% of beta sheet regions. There are <scene name='60/604489/10_transmembrane_helices/1'>10 transmembrane alpha helices</scene>, and three of them line a channel that spans the lipid bilayer and that allows calcium to pass through membranes. It also contains too cytoplasmic loops between the transmembrane helices. When the protein is not phosphorylated, two of the transmembrane helices are disrupted and form a cavity that can bind two molecules of calcium. | The protein is very rich in <scene name='60/604489/Alpha_regions/1'>alpha helices regions</scene>, it contains 47% of helical regions and 16% of beta sheet regions.
