Summary

CAMK2A (calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II alpha, HGNC:1460) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 5q32, encoding Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II subunit alpha (Q9UQM7). Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that functions autonomously after Ca(2+)/calmodulin-binding and autophosphorylation, and is involved in various processes, such as synaptic plasticity, neurotransmitter release and long-term potentiation.

The product of this gene belongs to the serine/threonine protein kinases family, and to the Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases subfamily. Calcium signaling is crucial for several aspects of plasticity at glutamatergic synapses. This calcium calmodulin-dependent protein kinase is composed of four different chains: alpha, beta, gamma, and delta. The alpha chain encoded by this gene is required for hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) and spatial learning. In addition to its calcium-calmodulin (CaM)-dependent activity, this protein can undergo autophosphorylation, resulting in CaM-independent activity. Several transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.

Function. Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that functions autonomously after Ca(2+)/calmodulin-binding and autophosphorylation, and is involved in various processes, such as synaptic plasticity, neurotransmitter release and long-term potentiation. Member of the NMDAR signaling complex in excitatory synapses, it regulates NMDAR-dependent potentiation of the AMPAR and therefore excitatory synaptic transmission. Regulates dendritic spine development. Also regulates the migration of developing neurons. Phosphorylates the transcription factor FOXO3 to activate its transcriptional activity. Phosphorylates the transcription factor ETS1 in response to calcium signaling, thereby decreasing ETS1 affinity for DNA. In response to interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) stimulation, catalyzes phosphorylation of STAT1, stimulating the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. In response to interferon-beta (IFN-beta) stimulation, stimulates the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. In response to interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) stimulation, catalyzes phosphorylation of PSAT1, inhibiting ferroptosis by promoting GPX4 hydroxylation and stability. Acts as a negative regulator of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG)-mediated synaptic signaling via modulation of DAGLA activity.

Subunit / interactions. There are 4 genes encoding calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II chains: CAMK2A, CAMK2B, CAMK2G and CAMK2D. The corresponding proteins assemble into homo- or heteromultimeric holoenzymes composed of 12 subunits with two hexameric rings stacked one on top of the other. Interacts with BAALC. Interacts with MPDZ. Interacts with SYN1. Interacts with CAMK2N2. Interacts with SYNGAP1. Interacts with SYNPO2. Interacts with SHANK3. Interacts with GRIN2B. Interacts with CACNB2. Interacts with LRRC7. Interacts with GRM5. Interacts with DAGLA (via C-terminal); this interaction is enhanced by autophosphorylation of CAMK2A at Thr-286. Interacts with CAMK2N1; this interaction requires CAMK2A activation by Ca(2+).

Subcellular location. Synapse. Postsynaptic density. Cell projection. Dendritic spine. Dendrite.

Post-translational modifications. Autophosphorylation of Thr-286 following activation by Ca(2+)/calmodulin. Phosphorylation of Thr-286 locks the kinase into an activated state. Palmitoylated. Probably palmitoylated by ZDHHC3 and ZDHHC7.

Disease relevance. Intellectual developmental disorder, autosomal dominant 53 (MRD53) [MIM:617798] A disorder characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptive behavior and manifested during the developmental period. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Intellectual developmental disorder, autosomal recessive 63 (MRT63) [MIM:618095] A disorder characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptive behavior and manifested during the developmental period. MRT63 patients manifest global developmental delay, severe intellectual disability, and seizures. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Activity regulation. Activated by Ca(2+)/calmodulin. Binding of calmodulin results in conformational change that relieves intrasteric autoinhibition and allows autophosphorylation of Thr-286 which turns the kinase in a constitutively active form and confers to the kinase a Ca(2+)-independent activity.

Similarity. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. CaMK subfamily.

Enriched among interaction partners

Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 93 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
