Function

Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that functions autonomously after Ca(2+)/calmodulin-binding and autophosphorylation, and is involved in dendritic spine and synapse formation, neuronal plasticity and regulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) transport in skeletal muscle (PubMed:16690701). In neurons, plays an essential structural role in the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton during plasticity by binding and bundling actin filaments in a kinase-independent manner. This structural function is required for correct targeting of CaMK2A, which acts downstream of NMDAR to promote dendritic spine and synapse formation and maintain synaptic plasticity which enables long-term potentiation (LTP) and hippocampus-dependent learning. In developing hippocampal neurons, promotes arborization of the dendritic tree and in mature neurons, promotes dendritic remodeling. Also regulates the migration of developing neurons (PubMed:29100089). Participates in the modulation of skeletal muscle function in response to exercise (PubMed:16690701). In slow-twitch muscles, is involved in regulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) transport and in fast-twitch muscle participates in the control of Ca(2+) release from the SR through phosphorylation of triadin, a ryanodine receptor-coupling factor, and phospholamban (PLN/PLB), an endogenous inhibitor of SERCA2A/ATP2A2. In response to interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) stimulation, catalyzes phosphorylation of STAT1, stimulating the JAK-STAT signaling pathway (By similarity). Phosphorylates reticulophagy regulator RETREG1 at 'Ser-151' under endoplasmic reticulum stress conditions which enhances RETREG1 oligomerization and its membrane scission and reticulophagy activity (PubMed:31930741).

Activity summary

CaMKII beta also called CaM-K 2B is a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase involved in many cellular processes. It is known for its molecular weight of approximately 73 kDa. Expressed widely in tissues CaMKII beta is particularly important in brain and heart tissues. CaMKII family which includes CaMK plays a role in catalyzing the phosphorylation of serine and threonine residues in proteins influencing varied cellular activities.

Biological function summary

Without referring directly to CaMKII beta this protein contributes to synaptic plasticity which influences learning and memory in neural cells. It functions as part of a multimeric complex forming a holoenzyme with other CaMKII isoforms like CaMKII alpha gamma and delta. The structural dynamics of its autophosphorylation regulate its prolonged activity independent of calcium and calmodulin affecting downstream signaling.

Pathways

Without directly mentioning CaMKII beta it is essential in the Ca2+/calmodulin signaling pathway critical for regulating neuronal activity. Additionally this kinase participates in the cardiac conduction system influencing the heartbeat. Related proteins like calcineurin and protein kinase A interact in these signaling pathways amplifying the role of CaMKII beta in translating calcium bursts into longer-term cellular responses.

Associated diseases and disorders

Without direct mention CaMKII beta's involvement is evident in conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and arrhythmias. In neurodegenerative diseases its deregulation affects the balance of phosphorylation involving proteins like tau which contribute to disease progression. In cardiac disorders its role in arrhythmias interacts with ion channels affecting heart rhythm stability. Understanding these interactions helps in therapeutic approaches targeting CaMKII beta-related pathways.
