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

Molecular basis of the CRAC channel.

TL;DR: RNA interference screens together with over-expression and site-directed mutagenesis have identified the triggering molecule (Stim) that links store depletion to CRAC channel-mediated Ca(2+) influx and the pore subunit (Orai) of theCRAC channel that allows highly selective entry of Ca( 2+) ions into cells.

Methods of modulating and identifying agents that modulate intracellular calcium

TL;DR: In this paper, methods for identifying agents that modulate intracellular calcium are presented, as well as methods of modulating calcium within cells and methods of identifying proteins involved in modulating intra-cell calcium.

Composition comprising a cell comprising a STIM1 protein and an agent that modulates intracellular calcium and methods of use

TL;DR: In this article, methods for identifying agents that modulate intracellular calcium are presented, as well as methods of modulating calcium within cells and methods of identifying proteins involved in modulating intra-cell calcium.
