Posttranslational Modification | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
phosphoprotein | upon incubation with Ca2+ and calmodulin, the enzyme undergoes rapid autophosphorylation. Identification of five major autophosphorylation sites: Thr348, Thr353, Ser445, Ser474, and Ser500. Phosphorylation of Thr348 is required for substrate phosphorylation, but not selfphosphorylation | Homo sapiens |
