| UniProt functional annotation for P13543 | |||
| UniProt code: P13543. |
| 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. | |
| Miscellaneous: | This chain binds calcium. | |
