General annotation

Function CaM-kinase II (CAMK2) is a prominent kinase in the central nervous system that may function in long-term potentiation and neurotransmitter release. Member of the NMDAR signaling complex in excitatory synapses it may regulate NMDAR-dependent potentiation of the AMPAR and synaptic plasticity (By similarity).
Subcellular location Isoform Alpha KAP: Cytoplasm (Probable). Cell junction, synapse, presynaptic cell membrane (By similarity). Cell junction, synapse (By similarity). Note=Postsynaptic lipid rafts (By similarity).
