Abstract excerpt
Neuronal calcium sensor-1 (NCS-1), a Ca(2+)-binding protein of the calcium sensor family, modulates various functions in intracellular signaling pathways. The N-terminal glycine in this protein is myristoylated, which is presumably necessary for its physiological functions. In order to understand the structural role of myristoylation and calcium on conformational stability, we have investigated the equilibrium...
