Abstract excerpt
The importance of the aspartate ligand in the +Y Ca2+ coordinating position of two EF-hands of calmodulin has been investigated. Synthetic calmodulin genes were used to produce engineered proteins with the wild-type bovine sequence as well as with aspartate 58 in Ca(2+)-binding site II and/or aspartate 95 in site III changed to asparagine. The macroscopic Ca(2+)-binding constants of the intact calmodulins and of...
