1 H, 13 C and 15 N chemical shift backbone resonance NMR assignment of tobacco calmodulin 2.

Calcium is a ubiquitous second messenger regulating numbers of cellular processes in living organisms. It encodes and transmits information perceived by cells to downstream sensors, including calmodulin (CaM), that initiate cellular responses. In plants, CaM has been involved in the regulation of plant responses to biotic and abiotic environmental cues. Plant CaMs possess a cysteine residue in their first calcium-binding motif EF-hand, which is not conserved in other eucaryotic organisms. In this work, we report the near-complete backbone chemical shift assignment of tobacco CaM2 with calcium. These results will be useful to study the impact of this particular EF-hand domain regarding CaM interaction with partners involved in stress responses.
