A rapid large scale purification procedure based on three conventional purification steps, ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE cellulose and hydroxylapaptite chromotography yields gram amounts of calmodulin. The protein is more than 98% pure by SDS gel electrophoresis and amino acid composition. It is free of contaminating EGTA or EDTA and the omission of heat treatment or denaturing solvents during the preparation avoids possible denaturation of the protein and minimizes partial proteolysis.

D002147 Calmodulin A heat-stable, low-molecular-weight activator protein found mainly in the brain and heart. The binding of calcium ions to this protein allows this protein to bind to cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases and to adenyl cyclase with subsequent activation. Thereby this protein modulates cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP levels.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
