Calmodulin 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CALM1 gene.

Contents

Function

Calmodulin 1 is the archetype of the family of calcium-modulated (calmodulin) 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 148 amino acids and has 4 calcium-binding EF hand motifs. Its functions include roles in growth and the cell cycle as well as in signal transduction and the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters.

Interactions

Calmodulin 1 has been shown to interact with:

  • AKAP9,
  • Androgen receptor,
  • IQGAP1,
  • PPEF1, and
  • TRPV1.
