Calcium-Dependent Interactions of Calmodulin with Select Peptides: A Comprehensive Study
This study investigates the dependence of calmodulin (CaM) on calcium ions (Ca2+) and its interactions with specific peptides (Pep.G, Pep.H, Pep.I, Pep.J). The experiments utilize varying concentrations of free Ca2+ (200 μM) and complexing agents like EGTA. Response patterns and binding affinities are analyzed for CaM and peptide complexes, examining the roles of peptide sequences P62, P63, P64, and P65. Results elucidate the influence of calcium on peptide binding and suggest potential implications for calcium signaling pathways in cellular processes.
