Structural highlights
Function[CPNS1_RAT] Regulatory subunit of the calcium-regulated non-lysosomal thiol-protease which catalyzes limited proteolysis of substrates involved in cytoskeletal remodeling and signal transduction. Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedThe crystal structure of a Ca(2+)-binding domain (dVI) of rat m-calpain has been determined at 2.3 A resolution, both with and without bound Ca2+. The structures reveal a unique fold incorporating five EF-hand motifs per monomer, three of which bind calcium at physiological calcium concentrations, with one showing a novel EF-hand coordination pattern. This investigation gives us a first view of the calcium-induced conformational changes, and consequently an insight into the mechanism of calcium induced activation in calpain. The crystal structures reveal a dVI homodimer which provides a preliminary model for the subunit dimerization in calpain.
