Abstract excerpt
Myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK) comprised of N-terminal actin-binding domain, central catalytic domain, and C-terminal myosin-binding domain. It exerted not only kinase activity to phosphorylate 20 kDa regulatory light chain of smooth muscle but also exerted non-kinase activity on myosin motor and myosin ATPase activities (Nakamura et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 2008, 369, 135). The previous studies on...
