IUBMB Comments

Requires Ca2+ and 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, but more slowly.

The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Eukaryota, Bacteria

Synonyms
mlck, myosin light chain kinase, myosin light-chain kinase, mlc kinase, smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase, smmlck, nmmlck, myosin kinase, cmlck, skmlck, more
