Background Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase or CaM kinases are serine/threonine-specific protein kinases that are primarily regulated by the Calcium/calmodulin complex. These kinases show a memory effect on activation. CaM kinases activity can outlast the intracellular calcium transient that is needed to activate it. In neurons, this property is important for the induction of synaptic plasticity. Pharmacological inhibition of CaM kinases II blocks the induction of long-term potentiation. Upon activation, CaM kinases II phosphorylates postsynaptic glutamate receptors and changes the electrical properties of the synapse.
