Abstract excerpt
The transport of calcium to the extracellular space carried out by plasma membrane Ca(2+) pumps (PMCAs) is essential for maintaining low Ca(2+) concentrations in the cytosol of eukaryotic cells. The activity of PMCAs is controlled by autoinhibition. Autoinhibition is relieved by the binding of Ca(2+)-calmodulin to the calmodulin-binding autoinhibitory sequence, which in the human PMCA is located in the C-terminal...
