Abstract excerpt
Contractility of smooth muscle and non-muscle microfilaments involves phosphorylation of myosin II light chain. Myosin light chain phosphatase (MLCP) is specifically inhibited by the protein kinase C-potentiated inhibitor protein of 17 kDa, called CPI-17, as part of Ca(2+) sensitization of vascul...
