Disease relevance of Camk4

  • When cDNA for rat brain CaM-kinase IV was expressed in Escherichia coli, the enzyme was produced in a good yield, but it did not show significant activity [1].
  • Antisense CCDPK ODN treatment at 2 wk after injury resulted in a significant inhibition of intima hyperplasia, compared with untreated vessels [2].
  • CONCLUSION: SPD protected striatal neurons against ischemic injury and antagonized the inhibitory action on CCDPK activity induced by ischemia [3].
  • RESULTS: Under anoxia for 30 min, the CCDPK II activity decreased to 29.2% and 27.0% of the control in rat hippocampal and striatal slices, respectively [4].
 

Psychiatry related information on Camk4

 

High impact information on Camk4

  • Calcium regulation of dendritic growth via CaM kinase IV and CREB-mediated transcription [6].
  • Calcium-dependent dendritic growth is suppressed by CaM kinase inhibitors, a constitutively active form of CaM kinase IV induces dendritic growth in the absence of extracellular stimulation, and a kinase-dead form of CaM kinase IV suppresses dendritic growth induced by calcium influx [6].
  • These mechanisms, which implicate CaM kinase IV and CREB in the control of BDNF expression, are likely to be centrally involved in activity-dependent plasticity during development [7].
  • The portion of sequence that extended from the hypothesized calmodulin-binding domain to the carboxyl terminus of the protein was identical at both the amino acid and nucleotide level to the noncatalytic, calmodulin-binding protein calspermin from rat testis [8].
  • The deduced amino acid sequence was confirmed by comparison with the peptide sequence from purified CaM kinase Gr [8].

  • In parallel fashion to its activation, CaM kinase IV is phosphorylated in a CaM kinase Ia kinase-, Ca(2+)-CaM-, and MgATP-dependent manner [17].
  • Present study revealed that CaMKK also phosphorylated CaM kinase IV associated with the activation of its activity [20].
