The association of calmodulin with subcellular fractions isolated from rat liver.
Calmodulin associated with rat liver mitochondria has been found to belong to a contaminant membranous fraction which contains different subcellular membranes. The concentration of calmodulin in this fraction is relatively high, about 1.6 micrograms/mg protein, and can not be decreased with EGTA. The calmodulin-rich membranous fraction seems to contain cytoskeletal proteins which could be responsible for the binding of calmodulin.
