| Myosin light-chain kinase. |
| Myosin light-chain kinase (phosphorylating). |
| Smooth-muscle-myosin-light-chain kinase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| ATP + [myosin light-chain] <=> ADP + [myosin light-chain] phosphate |
| Cofactor(s) |
|---|
| Ca(2+).
|
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Requires calmodulin for activity.
- The 20 kDa light chain from smooth muscle myosin is phosphorylated
more rapidly than any other acceptor, but light chains from other
myosins and myosin itself can act as acceptors, more slowly.
- Formerly EC 2.7.1.117.
