Abstract excerpt
The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP(3)R) forms ligand-regulated intracellular Ca(2+) release channels in the endoplasmic reticulum of all mammalian cells. The InsP(3)R has been suggested to have six transmembrane regions (TMRs) near its carboxyl terminus. A TMR-deletion mutation strategy was applied to define the location of the InsP(3)R pore. Mutant InsP(3)Rs were expressed in COS-1 cells and single...
