Abstract excerpt
The alpha-interacting domain (AID) in the I-II linker of high voltage-activated (HVA) Ca(2+) channel alpha1 subunits binds with high affinity to Ca(V)beta auxiliary subunits. The recently solved crystal structures of the AID-Ca(V)beta complex in Ca(V)1.1/1.2 have revealed that this interaction occurs through a set of six mostly invariant residues Glu/Asp(6), Leu(7), Gly(9), Tyr(10), Trp(13), and Ile(14) (where...
