Calmodulin (CaM)

Target
CaM
Molecular classification
Calcium-binding protein, Regulatory protein
01

Overview

Calmodulin is a ubiquitous eukaryotic protein acting as a dynamic sensor/transducer for intracellular calcium signals. Its unique structure enables broad regulatory control over hundreds of downstream effectors vital for cell physiology. Disruption or mutation leads directly to disease states due to loss or misregulation of these essential signaling networks.
