Biophysical characterization of rat cardiac Ca2+/Mg2+ ecto-ATPase (myoglein).

abstract：:We report the isolation of a full length cDNA from cardiac muscle that encodes a approximately 73 kDa calcium/calmodulin (CaM) dependent kinase IIbeta isoform (CaMKIIbeta(C)) that was generated by alternative splicing of the CaMKIIbeta gene. Antipeptide antibodies raised to specific regions of the kinase identified a ...
