Voltage-gated calcium channels are the primary mediators of depolarization-induced
calcium entry into neurons. There is great diversity of calcium channel subtypes due to …

Voltage‐gated calcium channels are essential players in many physiological processes in
excitable cells. There are three main subdivisions of calcium channel, defined by the pore …

Voltage-gated calcium (Ca 2+) channels initiate release of neurotransmitters at synapses,
and regulation of presynaptic Ca 2+ channels has a powerful influence on synaptic strength …

This review summarises genetic studies in which calcium channel genes have been
connected to the spectrum of neuropsychiatric syndromes, from bipolar disorder and …

The calcium ion (Ca2+) is the simplest and most versatile intracellular messenger known.
The discovery of Ca2+ sparks and a related family of elementary Ca2+ signaling events has …

Calmodulin regulation (calmodulation) of the family of voltage-gated CaV1-2 channels
comprises a prominent prototype for ion channel regulation, remarkable for its powerful …

This review addresses the localized regulation of voltage-gated ion channels by
phosphorylation. Comprehensive data on channel regulation by associated protein kinases …

A rise in cytosolic Ca 2+ concentration is used as a universal signalling mechanism to
control biological processes as diverse as exocytosis, contraction, cell growth and cell …

Recent work has identified missense mutations in calmodulin (CaM) that are associated with
severe early-onset long-QT syndrome (LQTS), leading to the proposition that altered CaM …

Calcium influx through voltage-gated Ca (CaV) channels is the first step in synaptic
transmission. This review concerns CaV channels at ribbon synapses in primary sense …
