New Aspects of Neurotransmitter Release and Exocytosis: Involvement of Ca2+/Calmodulin-Dependent Phosphorylation of Synapsin I in Insulin Exocytosis
ABSTRACT: The exocytosis of insulin from pancreatic β-cells is closely related to intracellular elevation of Ca2+. The effects of Ca2+ may be mediated by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII). Four subunits of CaMKII, termed α, β, γ, and δ, are encoded by distinct genes, and various i...
