Messengers
Calcium Ions as Secondary
Messengers
Calcium ions play a pivotal role in signal
transduction by binding to proteins such as
calmodulin and activating various downstream
effectors. They regulate processes like muscle
contraction, neurotransmitter release, and
enzyme activity, highlighting their significance in
cellular function.
