Abstract excerpt
The central helical region of calmodulin (CaM) includes amino acids 65-92 and serves to separate the two pairs of Ca2(+)-binding sites. This region may impart conformational flexibility and also interact with target proteins. The functional effects of deleting two, three, five, or eight amino acids from the central helix were monitored by examining the activation of phosphodiesterase, smooth muscle myosin light...
