Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that functions autonomously after Ca(2+)/calmodulin-binding and autophosphorylation, and is involved in various processes, such as synaptic plasticity, neurotransmitter release and long-term potentiation (PubMed:14722083). Member of the NMDAR signaling complex in excitatory synapses, it regulates NMDAR-dependent potentiation of the AMPAR and therefore excitatory synaptic transmission (By similarity). Regulates dendritic spine development (PubMed:28130356). Also regulates the migration of developing neurons (PubMed:29100089). Phosphorylates the transcription factor FOXO3 to activate its transcriptional activity (PubMed:23805378). Phosphorylates the transcription factor ETS1 in response to calcium signaling, thereby decreasing ETS1 affinity for DNA (By similarity). In response to interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) stimulation, catalyzes phosphorylation of STAT1, stimulating the JAK-STAT signaling pathway (PubMed:11972023). In response to interferon-beta (IFN-beta) stimulation, stimulates the JAK-STAT signaling pathway (PubMed:35568036). Acts as a negative regulator of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG)-mediated synaptic signaling via modulation of DAGLA activity (By similarity).

CaMKII alpha also known as CAMK2A is an enzyme belonging to the CaMK kinase family. This protein is a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and exhibits a molecular weight of approximately 50 to 60 kDa. CaMKII alpha is primarily expressed in the brain specifically in the hippocampus and other regions involved in synaptic activity. Due to its role as a serine/threonine kinase CaMKII alpha is significant in phosphorylating various substrates as part of cellular signaling.
CaMKII alpha plays an important role in synaptic plasticity a process vital for learning and memory. The protein acts as an important component of the postsynaptic density complex where it interacts with other proteins to regulate synaptic strength. When calcium levels rise CaMKII alpha is activated through phosphorylation altering its conformation and allowing interactions with downstream substrates. This regulatory mechanism highlights its role in modulating neurotransmission synaptic potentiation and memory consolidation.
CaMKII alpha functions within the calcium signaling pathway contributing to long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD). It interacts with proteins such as NMDA receptors to facilitate changes in synaptic strength alongside other kinases. This pathway's activation leads to memory formation and synaptic plasticity in the central nervous system. Additionally CaMKII alpha connects with the MAPK signaling pathway integrating signals from various neurotransmitter systems which help coordinate neuronal response to stimuli.
Alterations in CaMKII alpha have been linked to neurological conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia. In Alzheimer's discourse in CaMKII alpha phosphorylation correlates with impaired memory and cognitive function. The protein also interfaces with tau another key protein related to neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's. In schizophrenia abnormalities in CaMKII alpha expression and activity suggest its role in synaptic dysfunction and neurodevelopmental irregularities. Targeting CaMKII alpha may provide therapeutic opportunities for managing these and related neurological disorders.

IHC image of CaMKII staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human cerebellum.
The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6) in a Dako Pascal pressure cooker using the standard factory-set regime. Non-specific protein-protein interactions were then blocked in TBS containing 0.025% (v/v) Triton X-100, 0.3M (w/v) glycine and 1% (w/v) BSA for 1h at room temperature. The section was then incubated overnight at +4°C in TBS containing 0.025% (v/v) Triton X-100 and 1% (w/v) BSA with ab197499 at 1/100 (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Fluoromount®.
Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.
