Interacting Domains ↕CD ↕ Accession (External Link)Description ↕
IQpfam00612IQ calmodulin-binding motif. Calmodulin-binding motif.
Myosin_Npfam02736Myosin N-terminal SH3-like domain. This domain has an SH3-like fold. It is found at the N-terminus of many but not all myosins. The function of this domain is unknown.
Troponinpfam00992Troponin. Troponin (Tn) contains three subunits, Ca2+ binding (TnC), inhibitory (TnI), and tropomyosin binding (TnT). this Pfam contains members of the TnT subunit. Troponin is a complex of three proteins, Ca2+ binding (TnC), inhibitory (TnI), and tropomyosin binding (TnT). The troponin complex regulates Ca++ induced muscle contraction. This family includes troponin T and troponin I. Troponin I binds to actin and troponin T binds to tropomyosin.
Metallophospfam00149Calcineurin-like phosphoesterase. This family includes a diverse range of phosphoesterases, including protein phosphoserine phosphatases, nucleotidases, sphingomyelin phosphodiesterases and 2'-3' cAMP phosphodiesterases as well as nucleases such as bacterial SbcD or yeast MRE11. The most conserved regions in this superfamily centre around the metal chelating residues.
FKBP_Cpfam00254FKBP-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase.
Spectrinpfam00435Spectrin repeat. Spectrin repeat-domains are found in several proteins involved in cytoskeletal structure. These include spectrin, alpha-actinin and dystrophin. The sequence repeat used in this family is taken from the structural repeat in reference. The spectrin domain- repeat forms a three helix bundle. The second helix is interrupted by proline in some sequences. The repeats are defined by a characteristic tryptophan (W) residue at position 17 in helix A and a leucine (L) at 2 residues from the carboxyl end of helix C. Although the domain occurs in ultiple repeats along sequences, the domains are actually stable on their own - ie they act, biophysically, like domains rather than repeats that along function when aggregated.
efhand_Ca_insenpfam08726Ca2+ insensitive EF hand. EF hands are helix-loop-helix binding motifs involved in the regulation of many cellular processes. EF hands usually bind to Ca2+ ions which causes a major conformational change that allows the protein to interact with its designated targets. This domain corresponds to an EF hand which has partially or entirely lost its calcium-binding properties. The calcium insensitive EF hand is still able to mediate protein-protein recognition.
Calpain_inhibpfam00748Calpain inhibitor. This region is found multiple times in calpain inhibitor proteins.
CaMBDpfam02888Calmodulin binding domain. Small-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels (SK channels) are independent of voltage and gated solely by intracellular Ca2+. These membrane channels are heteromeric complexes that comprise pore-forming alpha-subunits and the Ca2+-binding protein calmodulin (CaM). CaM binds to the SK channel through this the CaM-binding domain (CaMBD), which is located in an intracellular region of the alpha-subunit immediately carboxy-terminal to the pore. Channel opening is triggered when Ca2+ binds the EF hands in the N-lobe of CaM. The structure of this domain complexed with CaM is known. This domain forms an elongated dimer with a CaM molecule bound at each end; each CaM wraps around three alpha-helices, two from one CaMBD subunit and one from the other.
Calpain_IIIcd00214Calpain, subdomain III. Calpains are calcium-activated cytoplasmic cysteine proteinases, participate in cytoskeletal remodeling processes, cell differentiation, apoptosis and signal transduction. Catalytic domain and the two calmodulin-like domains are separated by C2-like domain III. Domain III plays an important role in calcium-induced activation of calpain involving electrostatic interactions with subdomain II. Proposed to mediate calpain's interaction with phospholipids and translocation to cytoplasmic/nuclear membranes. CD includes subdomain III of typical and atypical calpains.
MARCKSpfam02063MARCKS family.
F-actin_cap_Apfam01267F-actin capping protein alpha subunit.
DUF1880pfam08976Domain of unknown function (DUF1880). This domain is found predominantly in DJ binding protein. It has no known function.
