General annotation (Comments)

Function

CaM-kinase II (CAMK2) is a prominent kinase in the central nervous system that may function in long-term potentiation and neurotransmitter release. Member of the NMDAR signaling complex in excitatory synapses it may regulate NMDAR-dependent potentiation of the AMPAR and synaptic plasticity By similarity.

Catalytic activity

ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.

Enzyme regulation

Autophosphorylation of Thr-286 allows the kinase to switch from a calmodulin-dependent to a calmodulin-independent state By similarity.

Subunit structure

CAMK2 is composed of four different chains: alpha, beta, gamma, and delta. The different isoforms assemble into homo- or heteromultimeric holoenzymes composed of 8 to 12 subunits. Interacts with BAALC, MPDZ, SYN1, CAMK2N2 and SYNGAP1 By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cell junctionsynapsepresynaptic cell membrane By similarity. Cell junctionsynapse By similarity. Note: Postsynaptic lipid rafts By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. CaMK subfamily.

Contains 1 protein kinase domain.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform A (identifier: Q5RCC4-1)

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.
Note: No experimental confirmation available.
Isoform B (identifier: Q5RCC4-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     328-328: K → KKRKSSSSVQLM
