Disease

CALM2_HUMAN Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia;Brugada syndrome;Romano-Ward syndrome. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Mutations in CALM2 are the cause of LQT15.

Function

CALM2_HUMAN Calmodulin mediates the control of a large number of enzymes, ion channels, aquaporins and other proteins through calcium-binding. Among the enzymes to be stimulated by the calmodulin-calcium complex are a number of protein kinases and phosphatases. Together with CCP110 and centrin, is involved in a genetic pathway that regulates the centrosome cycle and progression through cytokinesis (PubMed:16760425). Mediates calcium-dependent inactivation of CACNA1C (PubMed:26969752). Positively regulates calcium-activated potassium channel activity of KCNN2 (PubMed:27165696).^{[1] [2] [3]}
