Abstract excerpt
The targeting of ion channels to particular membrane microdomains and their organization in macromolecular complexes allow excitable cells to respond efficiently to extracellular signals. In this study, we describe the formation of a complex that contains two scaffolding proteins: caveolin-3 (Cav-3) and a membrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK), SAP97. Complex formation involves the association of Cav-3 with...
