Abstract excerpt
Myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) proteins play a pivotal role in the differentiation of cardiac and skeletal muscle cells. MEF2 factors are regulated by histone deacetylase enzymes such as histone deacetylase 5 (HDAC5). HDAC5 in turn is responsive to Ca(2+) signaling mediated by the intracellular calcium sensor calmodulin. Here a combination of proteolytic fragmentation, matrix-assisted laser desorption...
