2D <sup>15</sup>N-HSQC spectra of monomeric CM2 show a calcium sensitive interaction of calmodulin.

Abstract

<p>(A) 2D <sup>15</sup>N-HSQC spectra of monomeric CM2 alone (gray) overlaid with the spectra after the addition of 18μM CaM with 2mM CaCl<sub>2</sub> (pink) shows significant shifts. While 18μM CaM in the presence of 2mM EGTA (purple) shows more minimal shifts. Inset: Shifts on leucine 1131 and leucine 1137 are apparent. (B) Quantitation of shifts from a CaM titration (2mM CaCl<sub>2</sub>) where several shifts are greater than 0.01ppm (dashed line) on addition of 5.3μM CaM. Residues that align with the predicted CaM binding site in mammalian CDK5RAP2 are shown in red. The star indicated residue N1135 that is not visible in the HSQC spectra while the gray shading indicates residues that are not modeled in the 5MWE crystal structure. (C) Mapping of chemical shift changes (blue-red) onto the 5MWE crystal structure (CNNLZ is shown in gray) reveals shifts along the length of the helices including the region where dimer contacts are made.</p
