it is one of the following, a calcium-binding protein
a form of calcium used in fortifying soy products
a drug that treats osteoporsis
acalcium supplement with high bioavailibility
No, calcium bonds to calmodulin
A calmodulin is a calcium-binding protein found in all nucleated cells.
i think that all three types of muscle have calmodulin , because every nucleated cell has it
Calmodulin is a protein that binds calcium ions in smooth muscle cells. When calcium binds to calmodulin, it triggers a series of intracellular signaling events that lead to smooth muscle contraction.
The protein channels responsible for the uptake of calcium ions from the lumen of the intestine into the bloodstream is calmodulin. VitaminD is required for action of calmodulin.

Calcium binds to the messenger protein Calmodulin. The calcium-calmodulin complex then activates myosin light chain kinase (MLCK), which phosphorylates myosin to allow it to bind to actin - producing contraction.

Calmodulin is a protein that changes shape when it binds to calcium ions. This change in shape allows calmodulin to interact with and activate various target proteins involved in signaling pathways within cells.
