Calmodulin 1 is a member of calcium-modulated proteins which is present in the cytosol and on membranes facing the cytosol and has a high affinity for calcium. Calmodulin 1 has 4 calcium-binding domains and plays a role in cell growth, cell cycle, signal transduction and the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters. Calmodulin can bind to the epidermal growth factor receptor at its cytosolic juxtamembrane region and this inhibits its tyrosine kinase activity. A number of other proteins including HSP70 have been shown to interact with Calmodulin 1 in a cell-phase-specific manner.
The cell cycle is controlled by regulators functioning at the right time and at the right place. We have found that calmodulin (CaM) has specific distribution patterns during different cell-cycle stages. Here, we identify cell-cycle-specific binding proteins of CaM and
We have previously shown that exogenous calmodulin (CaM) binds to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) at its cytosolic juxtamembrane region inhibiting its tyrosine kinase activity. We demonstrate in this report that endogenous CaM binds to EGFR in intact cells
