MeSH definition : A monomeric calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase subtype that specifically
phosphorylates PEPTIDE ELONGATION FACTOR 2. The enzyme lacks a phosphorylatable activation
domain that can respond to CALCIUM-CALMODULIN-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASE KINASE, however
it is regulated by phosphorylation by PROTEIN KINASE A and through intramolecular
autophosphorylation.;
MeSH synonym : protein kinase cpk3; calcium calmodulin dependent protein kinase type 3; calmodulin-dependent protein kinase iii; e 2 kinase; eef 2 specific ca and calmodulin dependent protein kinase iii; eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase; eef-2-specific ca and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase iii; EF-2 Kinase; ef 2 kinase; kinase, ef-2; eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase; calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type 3; calmodulin dependent protein kinase iii; CAM Kinase III; cam pk iii; e-2 kinase; kinase cpk3, protein;
