We have recently shown that calmodulin (CaM) regulates the trafficking of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) as well as the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway. However, the overall regulation of the MAPK pathway is achieved through a complex interplay of other several upstream effectors including G-proteins, EGF, EGFR, protein kinase C (PKC), phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase and CaM. In order to understand the role of CaM in the PKC-mediated transactivation of EGFR we have analysed the effect of a CaM antagonist, N -(4-aminobutyl)-5-chloro-2-naphthalenesulfonamide, on the 12- O -tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-mediated activation of EGFR and the subsequent MAPK activation. The results show that CaM interferes with MAPK activation and the transactivation of EGFR mediated by PKC.
