“…An IQ or IQ-like domain often mediates Ca 2+ -independent CaM binding (reviewed in Jurado et al, 1999;Bä hler & Rhoads, 2002). Ca 2+ -dependent target proteins primarily contain domains that can be classified into motifs based upon variations on the basic amphiphilic -helix domain involving conserved hydrophobic residues at positions 1-10, 1-14 or 1-16 (reviewed in Rhoads & Friedberg, 1997;Ikura et al, 2002;Yamniuk & Vogel, 2004). SAXS measurements of Ca 2+ CaM with an amphiphilic peptide such as mastoparan or mellitin and a peptide from myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) showed large conformational changes of Ca 2+ CaM (Matsushima et al, 1989;Heidorn et al, 1989;Kataoka et al, 1989).…”
