General annotation (Comments)

Function

Phosphorylates 2 adjacent threonine residues, 'Thr-57' and 'Thr-59', in the N-terminus of eukaryotic elongation factor-2. Binds calmodulin By similarity.

Catalytic activity

ATP + [elongation factor 2] = ADP + [elongation factor 2] phosphate.

Enzyme regulation

Undergoes calcium/calmodulin-dependent intramolecular autophosphorylation, and this results in it becoming partially calcium/calmodulin-independent By similarity.

Subunit structure

Monomer or homodimer Potential.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Alpha-type protein kinase family.

Contains 1 alpha-type protein kinase domain.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform a (identifier: O01991-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform b (identifier: O01991-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     625-632: Missing.
