CALM1 calmodulin 1

Gene ID: 801, updated on 12-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: caM; CAM2; CAM3; CAMB; CAMC; CAMI; PHKD; CPVT4; DD132; LQT14; PHKD1; CALML2; CAMIII

Summary

This gene encodes one of three calmodulin proteins which are members of the EF-hand calcium-binding protein family. Calcium-induced activation of calmodulin regulates and modulates the function of cardiac ion channels. Two pseudogenes have been identified on chromosome 7 and X. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.A missense mutation in the CALM1 gene has been associated with ventricular tachycardia.[provided by RefSeq, May 2020]
