Abstract excerpt
Multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaM kinase) that is transiently expressed in COS-7 cells is essentially inactive when assayed without Ca2+. Physiological activation of the kinase occurs by binding of Ca2+/calmodulin near a putative autoinhibitory subdomain that contains the sequence His282-Arg-Gln-Glu-Thr286. We have markedly increased the Ca2(+)-independent activity of CaM kinase by...
