Abstract

Calcium (Ca²⁺) has long been recognized as a crucial intracellular messenger attaining stimuli-specific cellular outcomes via localized signaling. Ca²⁺-binding proteins, such as calmodulin (CaM), and its target proteins are key to the segregation and refinement of these Ca²⁺-dependent signaling events. This review not only summarizes the recent technological advances enabling the study of subcellular Ca ²⁺-CaM and Ca²⁺-CaM-dependent protein kinase (CaMKII) signaling events but also highlights the outstanding challenges in the field.
