Calmodulin-1 (CALM1)

The protein contains 149 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 16838 Da.

 

Calmodulin mediates the control of a large number of enzymes, ion channels, aquaporins and other proteins through calcium-binding. Among the enzymes to be stimulated by the calmodulin-calcium complex are a number of protein kinases and phosphatases. Together with CCP110 and centrin, is involved in a genetic pathway that regulates the centrosome cycle and progression through cytokinesis (PubMed:16760425). Is a regulator of voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels (PubMed:31454269). Mediates calcium-dependent inactivation of CACNA1C (PubMed:26969752). Positively regulates calcium-activated potassium channel activity of KCNN2 (PubMed:27165696). Forms a potassium channel complex with KCNQ1 and regulates electrophysiological activity of the channel via calcium-binding (PubMed:25441029). Acts as a sensor to modulate the endomplasmic reticulum contacts with other organelles mediated by VMP1:ATP2A2 (PubMed:28890335).', '(Microbial infection) Required for Legionella pneumophila SidJ glutamylase activity.

DESCRIPTION

Calmodulin is the archetype of the family of calcium-modulated proteins of which nearly 20 members have been found. They are identified by their occurrence in the cytosol or on membranes facing the cytosol and by a high affinity for calcium. Calmodulin contains 149 amino acids and has 4 calcium-binding domains. Its functions include roles in growth and the cell cycle as well as in signal transduction and the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters.

CLONING

Until the studies of Sen Gupta et al. (1987), only 1 human calmodulin cDNA had been reported. These authors found evidence of a second actively transcribed calmodulin gene in man. Calmodulin is the delta subunit of phosphorylase kinase, which has 3 other types of subunits. Although only 1 form of calmodulin has been found in humans, 3 distinct human cDNAs have been isolated that encode the identical polypeptide (Koller et al., 1990; Pegues and Friedberg, 1990). The existence of 3 expressible genes for calmodulin may indicate that one is a housekeeping gene and that the additional copies are differentially regulated to modulate calmodulin function. Rhyner et al. (1994) detected expression of CALM1 in all human tissues tested, although at varying levels. They identified 2 different CALM1-related pseudogenes. Toutenhoofd et al. (1998) found that all 3 CALM genes were expressed in human teratocarcinoma cells. CALM1 was expressed as a major 1.7-kb transcript and a minor 4.1-kb transcript. CALM1 was at least 5-fold less actively transcribed than CALM3 (114183).

BIOCHEMICAL FEATURES

To determine how calcium/calmodulin activates calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I (CAMK1; 604998), Chin et al. (1997) characterized CAMK1 activation by calmodulin mutants with substitutions at hydrophobic residues. They found that CAMK1 activity is dependent on met124 within the C-terminal domain of calmodulin as well as on N-terminal hydrophobic residues of calmodulin. Kretsinger et al. (1986) described the crystal structure of calmodulin to 3.6-angstrom resolution. Schumacher et al. (2001) determined the crystal structure of calmodulin bound to KCNN2 (605879). The calmodulin-binding domain forms an elongated dimer with a calmodulin molecule bound at each end; each calmodulin wraps around 3 alpha-helices, 2 from 1 calmodulin-binding domain subunit and 1 from the other. Edema factor, the exotoxin of the anthrax bacillus, is transported into host cells by an anthrax-derived transporter, protective antigen. Together with lethal factor (see 603060), edema factor contributes significantly to both cutaneous and systemic anthrax and is an adenylyl cyclase activated by CALM1. Drum et al. (2002) described the crystal structures of edema factor alone and edema factor with CALM1 and 3-prime-deoxy-ATP. On calmodulin binding, an edema factor helical domain of 15 kD undergoes a 15-angstrom translation and a 30-degree rotation away from the edema factor catalytic core, which stabilizes a disordered loop and leads to enzyme activation.

GENE STRUCTURE

Rhyner et al. (1994) found that the CALM1 gene contains 6 exons spread over about 10 kb of genomic DNA. The exon-intron structure was identical to that of CALM3. A cluster of transcription-start sites was identified 200 bp upstream of the ATG translation-start codon, and several putative regulatory elements were found in the 5-prime flanking region, as well as in intron 1. A short CAG trinucleotide repeat region w ... More on the omim web site
