Abstract excerpt
Calmodulin is a calcium-binding protein that regulates a wide range of enzymes. It is also one of the few examples of a small protein capable of binding to peptides with very high affinity, and is therefore an interesting candidate for biotechnological applications and a good model system for stu...
