Abstract excerpt
Calcium oscillations and traveling calcium waves have been observed in living cells, although amino acid sequences regulating wave directionality and downstream cell functions have not been reported. In this study we identify an amino acid sequence within the cytoplasmic domain of the leukocyte IgG receptor Fc gamma RIIA that affects the amplitude of calcium spikes and the spatiotemporal dynamics of calcium waves...
