Activation of a Ca2+-dependent Protein Kinase Involves Intramolecular Binding of a Calmodulin-like Regulatory Domain

Notes on a 1996 Biochemistry paper revealing that activation of CDPK involves intramolecular binding between its calmodulin-like domain (CaM-LD) and junction/autoinhibitor, offering deep insights into Ca2+-regulated protein kinase activation.

Membrane Localization of a Rice Calcium-Dependent Protein Kinase (CDPK) Is Mediated by Myristoylation and Palmitoylation

Notes on a 2000 Plant Journal paper identifying dual lipid modifications — myristoylation and palmitoylation — as essential for membrane targeting of rice CDPK (OsCDPK2), marking the first report of such dual acylation in plant CDPKs.

Tobacco Calcium-Dependent Protein Kinases Are Differentially Phosphorylated In Vivo as Part of a Kinase Cascade That Regulates Stress Response

Notes on a 2010 JBC paper investigating in vivo phosphorylation of tobacco CDPKs (NtCDPK2 and NtCDPK3) in response to stress, revealing distinct intra- and inter-molecular phosphorylation events, N-terminal-specific regulation, and the critical role of membrane localization.
