Myosin Light Chain Kinase as a Multifunctional Regulatory Protein of Smooth Muscle Contraction

Myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) is a regulatory protein for smooth muscle contraction, which acts by phosphorylating 20‐kDa myosin light chain (MLC20) to activate the myosin ATPase activity. Although this mode of action is well‐established, there are numerous reports of smooth muscle contraction th...
