The use of selective peptide toxins has allowed the association of Ca.2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 with P- or Q-, N-, and B-type calcium currents, respectively (Catterall, 2000; Ertel et al., 2000; Jarvis and Zamponi, 2001). These currents are found almost e

Modulation of High Voltage-Activated Calcium Channels by G Protein-Coupled Receptors,lead to calcium channel modulation. Agonist activation of the GPCR superfamily releases a G protein heterotrimer and promotes dissociation of a G protein α subunit from a G protein βγ heterodimer. Each of these components (Gα and Gβγ) regulates calcium channel activity. Gα mediates voltage-independe

Alternative Splicing in Voltage Gated Calcium Channels,age-gated calcium channel family. All major calcium channel subunits, Ca.α., Ca.β, and Ca.α.γ, are subject to alternative splicing. The structural changes generated by this form of RNA processing are often quite subtle but clearly critical for highly effective coupling to specific signaling pathways
