Journal ArticleDOI

STIM1, an essential and conserved component of store-operated Ca2+ channel function

TL;DR: It is proposed that STIM1, a ubiquitously expressed protein that is conserved from Drosophila to mammalian cells, plays an essential role in SOC influx and may be a common component of SOC and CRAC channels.
Journal ArticleDOI

2-Methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)-pyridine (MPEP), a potent, selective and systemically active mGlu5 receptor antagonist.

TL;DR: 2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)-pyridine is described as a potent, selective and systemically active antagonist for the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGlu5) and in rat neonatal brain slices, MPEP inhibited DHPG-stimulated PI hydrolysis with a potency and selectivity similar to that observed on human mGlu receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and functional expression of α1, α2, and β subunits of a novel human neuronal calcium channel subtype

TL;DR: The alpha 1 subunit directs the recombinant expression of a dihydropyridine-sensitive L-type Ca2+ channel when coexpressed with the beta (beta 2) and the alpha 2 (alpha 2b) subunits in Xenopus oocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and functional expression of an omega-conotoxin-sensitive human N-type calcium channel

TL;DR: The heterogeneity of alpha 1B-1 alpha 2b beta 2-transfected cells displayed a single class of saturable, high-affinity (dissociation constant = 55 pM) omega-CgTx binding sites, which are consistent with multiple, biophysically distinct N-type calcium channels.
