Calcium signalling: Setting store by calcium channels
Recent work, stemming from genetic studies of phototransduction in Drosophila, has identified a set of homologous channel proteins that appear to mediate capacitative Ca2+ entry in species from worms and files to humans.
متن کاملCalcium Signalling: Calcium Goes Global
Recent evidence suggests that multiple calcium-releasing messengers might be activated simultaneously to regulate patterns of intracellular calcium signalling. In this way, agonists might use different messenger cocktails to encode specific signals and target selected processes.
متن کاملMAP6 interacts with Tctex1 and Cav2.2/N‐type calcium channels to regulate calcium signalling in neurons
MAP6 proteins were first described as microtubule-stabilizing agents, whose properties were thought to be essential for neuronal development and maintenance of complex neuronal networks. However, deletion of all MAP6 isoforms in MAP6 KO mice does not lead to dramatic morphological aberrations of the brain but rather to alterations in multiple neurotransmissions and severe behavioural impairment...
متن کاملCalcium-gated Calcium Channels
The action of ruthenium red (RR) on Ca" loading by and Ca" release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of chemically skinned skeletal muscle fibers of the rabbit was investigated . Ca" loading, in the presence of the precipitating anion pyrophosphate, was monitored by a light-scattering method . Ca" release was indirectly measured by following tension development evoked by caffeine . Stimulati...
متن کاملCalcium signalling
Cellular signalling mechanisms are designed to transmit information from the cell surface membrane to specific targets within the cell. Often, the information is transmitted by means of intracellular messengers, of which the calcium ion, Ca2+, is one of the most important. Indeed, Ca2+ operates throughout the life history of a typical cell: it triggers new life at fertilisation, it controls man...
