Calmodulin 1

Calmodulin 1 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the CALM1 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
Calmodulin 1 is the archetype of the family of calcium-modulated (is_associated_with::calmodulin) proteins of which nearly 20 members have been found. They are identified by their occurrence in the is_associated_with::cytosol or on membranes facing the cytosol and by a high affinity for is_associated_with::calcium. Calmodulin contains 148 amino acids and has 4 calcium-binding EF hand motifs. Its functions include roles in growth and the is_associated_with::cell cycle as well as in is_associated_with::signal transduction and the synthesis and release of is_associated_with::neurotransmitters.

Interactions
Calmodulin 1 has been shown to interact with:
 * is_associated_with::AKAP9,
 * is_associated_with::Androgen receptor,
 * is_associated_with::IQGAP1,
 * is_associated_with::PPEF1, and
 * is_associated_with::TRPV1.
