Journal ArticleDOI
Selective peptide antagonist of the class E calcium channel from the venom of the tarantula Hysterocrates gigas.
Robert Newcomb,Balazs G. Szoke,Andrew Palma,Gang Wang,Xiao-hua Chen,William F. Hopkins,Cong Ruth,James A. Miller,Laszlo Urge,Katalin Tarczy-Hornoch,Joseph A. Loo,David J. Dooley,Laszlo Nadasdi,Richard W. Tsien,José R. Lemos,George P. Miljanich +15 more
TL;DR: The unique selectivity of SNX-482 suggests its usefulness in studying the diversity, function, and pharmacology of class E and/or R-type Ca2+ channels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular basis of proton block of L-type Ca2+ channels.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the protonation site in L-type Ca2+ channels lies within the pore and is formed by a combination of conserved P-region glutamates in repeats I, II, and III, acting in concert.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional coupling between ‘R-type’ Ca2+ channels and insulin secretion in the insulinoma cell line INS-1
Rolf Vajna,Udo Klöckner,Alexey Pereverzev,Marco Weiergräber,Xiao-hua Chen,George Miljanich,Norbert Klugbauer,Jürgen Hescheler,Edward Perez-Reyes,Toni Schneider +9 more
TL;DR: In INS-1 cells, glucose- and KCl-induced insulin release are reduced by SNX-482 in a dose-dependent manner leading to the conclusion that alpha1E, in addition to L-type and non-L-type (alpha1A-mediated) Ca2+ currents, is involved in Ca2- dependent insulin secretion of INS- 1 cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aspartate Substitutions Establish the Concerted Action of P-region Glutamates in Repeats I and III in Forming the Protonation Site of L-type Ca2+ Channels
Xiao-hua Chen,Richard W. Tsien +1 more
TL;DR: All the evidence supports a model in which multiple carboxylates work in concert to form a single high affinity protonation site, and the idea that EI and EIII act together to stabilize a single titratable H+ ion and behave nearly symmetrically in influencing pore conductance is supported.
Posted ContentDOI
Reward and expectancy effects on neural signals of motor preparation and execution
TL;DR: In this article, the lateralized readiness potential (LRP) and the mediofrontal theta oscillations were analyzed for reward anticipation and expectancy in response selection and execution.
