چکیده

Ca2+ channels are voltage-gated ion present in the membrane of most excitable cells. The nomenclature for Ca2+channels was proposed by [131] and approved NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on [72]. Most form hetero-oligomeric complexes. α1 subunit is pore-forming provides binding site(s) practically all agonists antagonists. 10 cloned α1-subunits can be grouped into three families: (1) high-voltage activated dihydropyridine-sensitive (L-type, CaV1.x) channels; (2) high- to moderate-voltage dihydropyridine-insensitive (CaV2.x) (3) low-voltage-activated (T-type, CaV3.x) channels. Each has four homologous repeats (I-IV), each repeat having six transmembrane domains (S1-S6) a region between S5 S6. Voltage-dependent gating driven spanning S4 segment, which contains highly conserved positive charges that respond changes potential. All α1-subunit genes give rise alternatively spliced products. At least channels, it likely native comprise co-assemblies α1, β α2-δ subunits. γ subunits have not been proven associate with other than α1s skeletal muscle Cav1.1 channel. α2-δ1 α2-δ2 bind gabapentin pregabalin.

Voltage-gated calcium channels.

Voltage-gated calcium (Ca(2+)) channels are key transducers of membrane potential changes into intracellular Ca(2+) transients that initiate many physiological events. There are ten members of the voltage-gated Ca(2+) channel family in mammals, and they serve distinct roles in cellular signal transduction. The Ca(V)1 subfamily initiates contraction, secretion, regulation of gene expression, int...

β Subunits of Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels

Calcium channel β subunits have marked effects on the trafficking and on several of the biophysical properties of all high voltage activated calcium channels. In this article I shall review information on the different genes, on the structure of the β subunits, and on their differential expression and post-translational modification. Their role in trafficking and assembly of the calcium channel...

Molecular Properties of Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels

Native Voltage-Gated Ca Channels Early electrophysiological recordings from neurons, muscle and endocrine cells revealed voltage-activated calcium (Ca) currents with distinct characteristics, suggesting the existence of two major classes of Ca2+ channels based upon the membrane potentials at which they first open (see chapter by Tsien); low-voltage activated (LVA) and high-voltage activated (HV...

Voltage-gated calcium channels of Paramecium cilia.

Paramecium cells swim by beating their cilia, and make turns by transiently reversing their power stroke. Reversal is caused by Ca2+ entering the cilium through voltage-gated Ca2+ (CaV) channels that are found exclusively in the cilia. As ciliary Ca2+ levels return to normal, the cell pivots and swims forward in a new direction. Thus, the activation of the CaV channels causes cells to make a tu...
