Proteolytic maturation of α 2 δ represents a checkpoint for activation and neuronal trafficking of latent calcium channels [PDF]
The auxiliary α2δ subunits of voltage-gated calcium channels are extracellular membrane-associated proteins, which are post-translationally cleaved into disulfide-linked polypeptides α2 and δ.

A novel binding site between the voltage-dependent calcium channel CaV1.2 subunit and CaVβ2 subunit discovered using a new analysis method for protein-protein interactions. [PDF]
We developed a new method to analyze protein–protein interactions using a dual-inducible prokaryotic expression system. To evaluate protein–protein binding, a chimeric fusion toxin gene was constructed using a DNase-treated short DNA fragment (epitope ...

Acidic amino acids in the first intracellular loop contribute to voltage- and calcium- dependent gating of anoctamin1/TMEM16A. [PDF]
Anoctamin1 (Ano1, or TMEM16A) is a Ca2+-activated chloride channel that is gated by both voltage and Ca2+. We have previously identified that the first intracellular loop that contains a high density of acidic residues mediates voltage- and calcium ...

Forskolin Regulates L-Type Calcium Channel through Interaction between Actinin 4 and β3 Subunit in Osteoblasts. [PDF]
Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels that permit cellular calcium influx are essential in calcium-mediated modulation of cellular signaling. Although the regulation of voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels is linked to many factors including ...

Cholesterol influences voltage-gated calcium channels and BK-type potassium channels in auditory hair cells. [PDF]
The influence of membrane cholesterol content on a variety of ion channel conductances in numerous cell models has been shown, but studies exploring its role in auditory hair cell physiology are scarce.
