Descriptions

Myosin light chain kinases (MLCK) are members of the family of Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. The autoinhibitory pseudosubstrate sequence was identified by sequence similarity with the chicken smooth muscle MLCK (P11799-2). The mutational changes of acidic residues in the catalytic core of the kinase domain, which may interact with the basic residues in the pseudosubstrate sequence, increased the catalytic activity of the kinase domain.

4 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
cleavage furrow The cleavage furrow is a plasma membrane invagination at the cell division site. The cleavage furrow begins as a shallow groove and eventually deepens to divide the cytoplasm.
cytoplasm The contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
cytoskeleton A cellular structure that forms the internal framework of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. The cytoskeleton includes intermediate filaments, microfilaments, microtubules, the microtrabecular lattice, and other structures characterized by a polymeric filamentous nature and long-range order within the cell. The various elements of the cytoskeleton not only serve in the maintenance of cellular shape but also have roles in other cellular functions, including cellular movement, cell division, endocytosis, and movement of organelles.
lamellipodium A thin sheetlike process extended by the leading edge of a migrating cell or extending cell process; contains a dense meshwork of actin filaments.

5 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
actin binding Binding to monomeric or multimeric forms of actin, including actin filaments.
ATP binding Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
calmodulin binding Binding to calmodulin, a calcium-binding protein with many roles, both in the calcium-bound and calcium-free states.
metal ion binding Binding to a metal ion.
myosin light chain kinase activity Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + myosin-light-chain = ADP + myosin-light-chain phosphate.
