Definition
English
:
A
CALCIUM
and CALMODULIN-dependent serine/threonine protein phosphatase that is composed of the
calcineurin
A catalytic subunit and the
calcineurin
B regulatory subunit.
Calcineurin
has been shown to dephosphorylate a number of
phosphoproteins
including
HISTONES
; MYOSIN LIGHT CHAIN; and the regulatory subunits of CAMP-DEPENDENT
PROTEIN KINASES
. It is involved in the regulation of
signal transduction
and is the target of an important class of immunophilin-immunosuppressive drug complexes.
