Description:
Binding of calcium(2+) to Recoverin (RCVRN) results in a conformational change in Recoverin that makes the myristoyl moiety available for binding to the membrane.
Participants:
(1) Recoverin (RCVRN)
(2) membrane
(1) Conformational dynamics of recoverin's Ca2+-myristoyl switch probed by 15N NMR relaxation dispersion and chemical shift analysis.
Xu et al. Proteins (2011)
(2) Sequestration of the membrane-targeting myristoyl group of recoverin in the calcium-free state.
Tanaka et al. Nature (1995)
(3) Molecular mechanics of calcium-myristoyl switches.
