| Research Abstract |
Calmodulin C-terminal domain peptides formed a heterodimer in the presence of calcium. Aiming at its application to protein splicing, detailed modes of heterodimer formation of these peptides are under study. On the other hand, an ion-channelprotein was constructed using the calmodulin C-terminal segment. The channel opened in the presence of calcium, and thus artificial calcium-sensitive ion channel was successfully established.
