Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
K43M site-directed mutagenesis, catalytically inactive form of CaMKIIgamma Mus musculus
additional information generation of isozyme-deficient Camk2gamma-/- eggs, exogenous expression of different cRNAs in the mutant eggs shows that the other multifunctional CaM kinases, CaMKI, and CaMKIV, are not capable of substituting CaMKIIgamma to initiate cell cycle resumption in response to a rise in intracellular Ca2+. Exogenous expression of Camk2g or Camk2d results in activation of nearly 80% of Camk2g-/- MII eggs after stimulation with SrCl2. None of the Camk2g-/- MII eggs expressing Camk1 or Camk4 activate in response to SrCl2 treatment. Expression of a constitutively active form of Camk4 (ca-Camk4), but not Camk1, triggers egg activation Mus musculus

additional information Mus musculus in terms of substrate specificity, the consensus sequences for phosphorylation by CaMKI, CaMKII, and CaMKIV are quite similar, and hence these kinases sometimes phosphorylate the same substrates, for example cAMP-response element-binding protein. Expression of Camk2g and Camk2d, but not Camk1 or Camk4, in Camk2g-/- eggs leads to degradation of exogenously expressed EMI2 ?

Subunits

Subunits Comment Organism
More CaMKII is a 12-subunit holoenzyme comprised of homo- or heteromers of alpha, beta, gamma, and delta subunits encoded by 4 different genes. The CaMK family shares considerable sequence homology and domain structure. They all have an N-terminal catalytic domain and a central auto-inhibitory and Ca2+/CaM-binding domain. CaMKII also has a unique C-terminal association domain involved in multimerization of the holoenzyme Mus musculus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction exogenous expression of different cRNAs in isozyme-deficient Camk2gamma-/- eggs shows that the other multifunctional CaM kinases, CaMKI, and CaMKIV, are not capable of substituting CaMKIIgamma to initiate cell cycle resumption in response to a rise in intracellular Ca2+. Exogenous expression of Camk2g or Camk2d results in activation of nearly 80% of Camk2g-/- MII eggs after stimulation with SrCl2. None of the Camk2g-/- MII eggs expressing Camk1 or Camk4 activate in response to SrCl2 treatment. Expression of catalytically inactive CaMKIIgamma mutant K43M in Camk2g-/- eggs to the same level as wild-type Camk2g does not result in EMI2 degradation. Expression of a constitutively active form of Camk4 (ca-Camk4), but not Camk1, triggers egg activation. Female mice lacking CaMKIIgamma are infertile, due to their inability to exit the metaphase II arrest, but they appear morphologically normal Mus musculus
physiological function CaMKIIgamma, the predominant CaMKII isoform in mouse eggs, controls egg activation by regulating cell cycle resumption. Degradation of EMI2 following its phosphorylation specifically by CaMKII is mechanistically linked to and promotes cell cycle resumption in MII eggs Mus musculus
