" /> Myosin-Light-Chain kinase - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Myosin-Light-Chain kinase;

MeSH definition : An enzyme that phosphorylates myosin light chains in the presence of ATP to yield myosin-light chain phosphate and ADP, and requires calcium and CALMODULIN. The 20-kDa light chain is phosphorylated more rapidly than any other acceptor, but light chains from other myosins and myosin itself can act as acceptors. The enzyme plays a central role in the regulation of smooth muscle contraction.;

MeSH synonym : kinase, myosin; myosin regulatory light chain kinase; myosin regulatory light-chain kinase; myosin kinase; kinase, myosin-light-chain; myosin lck; lck, myosin; myosin light chain kinase;

CISMeF synonym : EC 2.7.1.117;

MeSH CAS label : ATP:myosin-light-chain O-phosphotransferase;

Registry Number MeSH : EC 2.7.11.18;

MeSH annotation : DF: MLCK;

Is substance : O;
