Legacy_information[Kraev A] Originally identified by similarity to mammalian PMCA family proteins in Genome Project data, mca-1 was expressed in insect cells and shown to have the predicted activity: aspartyl-phosphate formation in the presence of calcium, like mammalian counterparts, has a calmodulin-binding domain at the C-terminus and actually binds human calmodulin in a standard assay. Two other related sequences identified in the genomic sequencing data "in progress" and cDNAs finished by direct RT-PCR product sequencing. Mca-3 shows the highest sequence similarity to the mammalian analogues (77% on aminoacid). All three mca sequences have calmodulin-binding domains at the same location as their mammalian counterparts and the same predicted trans-membrane topology

Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionmca-1 encodes one of three C. elegans plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPases (PMCAs); by homology, MCA-1 is predicted to function as a molecular pump that couples ATP hydrolysis to extrusion of cytosolic Ca2+; when expressed in insect cells, MCA-1 exhibits calcium-pumping ATPase activity and binding to human calmodulin; large-scale RNAi screens indicate that mca-1 activity is required for normal coordinated locomotion and rates of growth; an mca-1::gfp reporter fusion is expressed solely in the excretory canal.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003407

RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
