Gene Description

CALM3 encodes one of the three human calmodulin genes and produces the same 149 amino acid calmodulin protein encoded by CALM1 and CALM2. The protein is a ubiquitous calcium sensor with four EF-hand motifs that binds calcium and regulates ion channels, protein kinases, protein phosphatases, and cell-division machinery. Because CALM1, CALM2, and CALM3 encode identical proteins, core calcium-sensing functions transfer well across the calmodulin family. Direct channel- and sarcoplasmic-reticulum calcium-release regulation can be retained as core even when assayed in cardiac cells, whereas broader cardiac electrophysiology or tissue-context terms reflect downstream physiology or recruitment rather than a CALM3-specific biochemical difference. CALM3 variants contribute to calmodulinopathy, including CPVT and long-QT phenotypes driven by dysregulated calcium-channel signaling.

Primary intracellular calcium sensor. CALM3-encoded calmodulin binds calcium through four EF-hand motifs and converts calcium fluctuations into target-protein regulation.

Molecular Function:
calcium ion binding
Directly Involved In:
Cellular Locations:
Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:27516456
    Humans have 3 CaM genes ( CALM1 , CALM2 , and CALM3 ) encoding for a perfectly conserved sequence of amino acids
  • PMID:23040497
    Both CALM1 substitutions demonstrated compromised calcium binding
  • file:human/CALM3/CALM3-deep-research-falcon.md
    CaM has two homologous globular domains (N- and C-lobes) connected by a flexible central helix; each lobe contains two canonical EF-hand helix-loop-helix motifs, yielding four Ca2+ binding sites per CaM molecule.

Core calcium-dependent signal-transduction adaptor for kinase and phosphatase regulation, especially CaMK and calcineurin pathways.

Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:20668654
    Structure of the CaMKIIdelta/calmodulin complex reveals the molecular mechanism of CaMKII kinase activation.
  • PMID:35568036
    IFN inhibition was mediated by the binding of OspC1 and OspC3 to the Ca2+ sensor calmodulin (CaM), blocking CaM kinase II
  • PMID:8631777
    Blocking the Ca2+-induced conformational transitions in calmodulin with disulfide bonds.
  • file:human/CALM3/CALM3-deep-research-falcon.md
    Ca2+/CaM activates CaMKII and calcineurin, linking CaM to phosphorylation/dephosphorylation cascades.

Regulator of cardiac and other excitable-cell calcium channels, especially RyR2 and high-voltage-gated calcium-channel pathways.

Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:20226167
    the addition of a high concentration of CaM attenuated the aberrant increase of Ca(2+) sparks
  • PMID:27516456
    A103V-CaM (100 nmol/L) promoted spontaneous Ca wave and spark activity
  • PMID:31454269
    Human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes overexpressing mutant or wild-type CaM showed that both mutants impaired Ca2+-dependent inactivation of L-type Ca2+ channels and prolonged action potential duration
  • file:human/CALM3/CALM3-deep-research-falcon.md
    CaM regulates intracellular Ca2+ release channels. Notably, RyR2 is inhibited by both apoCaM and Ca2+/CaM.

Centrosome-associated regulator of late cytokinesis through CP110/centrin-containing cell-division machinery.

Molecular Function:
protein kinase binding
Directly Involved In:
Cellular Locations:
Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:16760425
    its depletion leads to a failure at a late stage of cytokinesis and the formation of binucleate cells
