Abstract excerpt
Kir/Gem, together with Rad, Rem and Rem2, is a member of the RGK small GTP-binding protein family. These multifunctional proteins regulate voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) activity and cell-shape remodeling. Calmodulin and 14-3-3 binding modulate the functions of RGK proteins. Intriguingly, abolishing the binding of calmodulin or calmodulin and 14-3-3 results in nuclear accumulation of RGK proteins. Under...
