Catalytic Activity
[myosin light chain]-L-serine + ATP = [myosin light chain]-O-phospho-L-serine + ADP + H(+)[myosin light chain]-L-threonine + ATP = [myosin light chain]-O-phospho-L-threonine + ADP + H(+)
Localization
Cytoplasm,Cytosol,Membrane;
Function
Phosphorylates a specific serine in the N-terminus of a myosin light chain, which leads to the formation of calmodulin/MLCK signal transduction complexes which allow selective transduction of calcium signals.
