The Ca 2+ /calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII)β has morphogenic functions in neurons not shared by the α isoform. CaMKIIβ contains three exons (v1, v3, and v4) not present in the CaMKIIα gene, and two of these exons (v1 and v4) are subject to differential alternative splicing. We s...
