Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity; calmodulin binding activity; and glutamate receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including peptidyl-threonine autophosphorylation; regulation of endocannabinoid signaling pathway; and regulation of synaptic vesicle docking. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle; modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; and protein phosphorylation. Located in mitochondrion and postsynaptic density. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early embryo; eye; genitourinary system; and nervous system. Used to study autism spectrum disorder and bipolar disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant intellectual developmental disorder 53 and autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder 63. Orthologous to human CAMK2A (calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II alpha).
