Calmodulin plays an important role in excitation contraction EC coupling and the initiation of the cross-bridge cycling in smooth muscle ultimately causing smooth muscle contraction. In order to activate contraction of smooth muscle the head of the myosin light chain must be phosphorylated.

This phosphorylation is done by myosin light chain MLC kinase.
