UniProt functional annotation for P07291



	UniProt functional annotation for P07291

UniProt code: P07291.

Organism: Argopecten irradians (Bay scallop) (Aequipecten irradians).

Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Spiralia; Lophotrochozoa; Mollusca; Bivalvia; Autobranchia; Pteriomorphia; Pectinida; Pectinoidea; Pectinidae; Argopecten.

Function: In molluscan muscle, calcium regulation is associated with myosin rather than with actin. Muscle myosin contains two types of light chains: the catalytic light chain, essential for ATPase activity, and the regulatory light chain, a calcium-binding protein responsible for Ca(2+) dependent binding and Ca(2+) dependent Mg-ATPase activity.
