calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase 2
Function:
1) prominent kinase in the central nervous system
2) the major protein of post-synaptic densities
3) may function in long-term potentiation (LTP) & neurotransmitter release
4) member of the NMDA receptor (NMDAR) signaling complex in excitatory synapses
5) may regulate NMDAR-dependent potentiation of the AMPAR & synaptic plasticity (putative)
CaM kinase II substrates include 14-3-3 beta Ser60, Ser65 AMPA receptors Adenylyl Cyclase olfactory AC3 Ser1076 Calpain II RGS*TAGGCR Calponin Ser175 cAMP phosphodiesterase CDC25C Choline Acetyl Transferase CPI 17 Ser 130, Thr 38 Chromogranin A (bovine) CREB Ser142 Dihydropteridine reductase Dystrophin eNOS Ser1117 ErbB2 Thr1172 FLIP GABA A receptor, beta 1 Ser384, Ser409 GABA A receptor, gamma 2 Ser348, Ser350 GluR1 AMPA receptor subunit Ser831, Ser845 Histamine H1 receptor Heat Shock Factor 1 Ser230 Homer 1b Insulin receptor substrate 58kDA Internexin alpha Kv1.4 channel MAP-2 Myogenic factor SRF Ser103, Thr160 D-Myo-inositol 1,4,5 3P3 kinase Thr311 Myosin non muscle form Thr1940 NBP60 Neurofilament L Ser57 NMDA receptor subunit NR2B Ser1303 nNOS Ser847 PSD95/SAP90 PSD95 associated protein PEA-15 Ser116 Phosducin Ser54, Ser73 Phospholamban Thr17 Phospholipase C beta 3 Ser537 Rabphilin 3A Ser34, Thr205,Thr209 Raf-1 RAP (receptor assoc. protein) RF-C replication factor C large subunit Ribosomal protein S18 Ryanodine Receptor (cardiac) Ser2809 & others SAP97 Sepiapterin reductase Stat1 Ser727 Stathmin Ser16 Synapsin 1 Tau Ser262, Ser365 Tiam1 TNF-receptor associated protein TOAD-64 Troponin T Ser190 (bovine) tubulin alpha tubulin beta Tyrosine Hydroxylase Ser19 VAMP/synaptobrevin (SYB) Vanilloid receptor 1 Ser502, Thr 704
Structure:
1) multiple (28) isoforms encoded by four genes: alpha, beta, delta, gamma
2) different isoforms assemble into homo- or heteromultimeric holoenzymes composed of 8 to 12 subunits
3) basic structure of each isoform consists of
a) catalytic domain
b) autoinhibitory or regulatory domain
c) variable segment
d) self-association domain
Compartment:
- cell junction, synapse
- presynaptic cell membrane (putative)
- postsynaptic lipid rafts (putative)
Expression:
- highly expressed in brain, constituting 1-2% of total protein; alpha & beta subunits are predominant
