Calmodulin acts as part of a calcium signal transduction pathway by mediating the control of a large number of enzymes, ion channels, aquaporins and other proteins through calcium-binding. Calcium-binding is required for the activation of calmodulin. Among the enzymes to be stimulated by the calmodulin-calcium complex are a number of protein kinases, such as myosin light-chain kinases and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II (CaMK2), and phosphatases. Together with CCP110 and centrin, is involved in a genetic pathway that regulates the centrosome cycle and progression through cytokinesis. Is a regulator of voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels. Mediates calcium-dependent inactivation of CACNA1C. Positively regulates calcium-activated potassium channel activity of KCNN2. Forms a potassium channel complex with KCNQ1 and regulates electrophysiological activity of the channel via calcium-binding. Acts as a sensor to modulate the endoplasmic reticulum contacts with other organelles mediated by VMP1:ATP2A2.

Belongs to the calmodulin family.
Ubiquitination results in a strongly decreased activity.
Calmodulin also known as calmoduline is a multifunctional intermediate calcium-binding protein expressed widely in eukaryotic cells. This small protein has a molecular weight of approximately 16.7 kDa. Calmodulin 1 2 and 3 serve as the key isoforms facilitating a variety of calcium-mediated processes. You can find it in cellular contexts where calcium signaling plays a regulatory role. Due to its ubiquity it acts as a mediator in numerous cellular responses.
Calmodulin modulates intracellular activities by binding to calcium ions and interacting with a wide array of target proteins. It is not part of a molecular complex but can partner with proteins like kinases and phosphatases leading to downstream effects on diverse cellular processes. Calmodulin function extends to muscle contraction cell division and signal transduction impacting both basal and specialized cellular functions.
Calmodulin operates as a functional link in calcium signaling and the MAPK signaling pathways. In these pathways calmodulin influences the activity of proteins such as myosin light-chain kinase and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. These interactions showcase calmodulin's pivotal role in translating calcium signaling into cellular responses connecting several signaling cascades.
Calmodulin has associations with certain cardiovascular diseases and neurodegenerative conditions. Its relationship with ion channel dysfunction links it to disorders like long QT syndrome. Additionally calmodulin interacts with proteins like sodium-calcium exchangers or other ion-handling channels reflecting its involvement in maintaining cellular ionic balance and consequently its implication in pathological states when dysregulated.
