Phosphorylase b kinase gamma catalytic chain, skeletal muscle isoform is an
enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ''PHKG1''
gene.
This gene is a member of the
Ser/Thr protein kinase family and encodes a protein with one protein kinase domain and two
calmodulin
Calmodulin (CaM) (an abbreviation for calcium-modulated protein) is a multifunctional intermediate calcium-binding messenger protein expressed in all eukaryotic cells. It is an intracellular target of the secondary messenger Ca2+, and the bind ...
-binding domains. This protein is the catalytic member of a 16 subunit protein kinase complex which contains equimolar ratios of 4 subunit types. The complex is a crucial
glycogenolytic regulatory enzyme. This gene has two
pseudogenes at chromosome 7q11.21 and one at chromosome 11p11.12.
