CaM Kinase II delta Antibodies

Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II delta (CaMKII delta) belongs to a family of multifunctional serine/threonine kinases activated in response to increases in intracellular calcium. There are 4 CaMKII isozymes, alpha, beta, gamma, and delta, and each can yield several isoforms through alternative splicing. CaMKII isoforms assemble into homo- or heteromultimeric holoenzymes composed of 8 to 12 subunits. CaMKII delta expression is ubiquitous and has been identified as the predominant CaMKII isozyme in the heart, where it is implicated in the development of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.
