Abstract excerpt
Using site-directed mutagenesis, we have produced three calmodulin (CaM) mutants in which one or the two tyrosine residues of native CaM were substituted by phenylalanine. The three variants, denoted CaM(Y99F), CaM(Y138F), and CaM(Y99F/Y138F), were highly expressed in transformed Escherichia coli BL21(DE3)pLysS and purified in high yield. The three CaM mutants were able to activate the cyclic nucleotide...
