Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
Ca2+ 24fold activation of wild-type in presence of both Ca2+ and calmodulin. For mutant lacking 19 amino acids at N-terminus, 12.9fold activation. Mutant lacking 9 amino acids at C-terminus, complete loss of activation Petunia sp.
Calmodulin 24fold activation of wild-type in presence of both Ca2+ and calmodulin. For mutant lacking 19 amino acids at N-terminus, 12.9fold activation. Mutant lacking 9 amino acids at C-terminus, complete loss of activation Petunia sp.

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
DELTAC9 9 amino acid C-terminal deletion mutant, no formation of complexes larger than 340 kDa, no activation by Ca2+/calmodulin. The ability to bind calmodulin in the presence of Ca2+ is retained, and mutant may be purified by calmodulin affinity chroamtography. 12% of wild-type activity at pH 5.8 Petunia sp.
DELTAN18 18 amino acid N-terminal deletion mutant, activation by Ca2+/calmodulin is reduced by about 50%. 40% of wild-type activity at pH 5.8 Petunia sp.
