Abstract excerpt
Conformational coupling with the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor has been suggested as a possible mechanism of activation of TRPC3 channels and a region in the C terminus of TRPC3 has been shown to interact with the IP3 receptor as well as calmodulin (calmodulin/IP3 receptor-binding (CIRB) region). Here we show that internal deletion of 20 amino acids corresponding to the highly conserved CIRB region...
