Calmodulin

Kalmodulin

Svensk definition

Ett värmestabilt aktivatorprotein med låg molekylvikt i ffa hjärna och hjärta. Genom kalciumjonbindning kan proteinet kopplas till cykliska nukleotidfosfodiesteraser och adenylcyklas och således utöva sin verkan. Därmed modulerar proteinet nivåerna av cykliskt AMP och cykliskt GMP.

Engelsk definition

A heat-stable, low-molecular-weight activator protein found mainly in the brain and heart. The binding of calcium ions to this protein allows this protein to bind to cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases and to adenyl cyclase with subsequent activation. Thereby this protein modulates cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP levels.
