  • The curious case of a wandering kinase: CaMKII spreads the wealth?

    Klassen MP, Shen K. Neuron. 2009; 61 (3): 331-2

    Calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II has been suggested to produce input-specific long-term potentiation of synaptic strength. This idea has been complicated by results from Rose, Jin, and Craig demonstrating that spatiotemporally restricted NMDA receptor excitation at contiguous synapses can result in the translocation of activated CaMKII throughout the dendritic arbor.
