Abstract excerpt
High-voltage activated Ca(2+) (Ca(V)) channels play a key role in the regulation of numerous physiological events by causing transient changes in the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration. These channels consist of a pore-forming Ca(V)α(1) protein and three auxiliary subunits (Ca(V)β, Ca(V)α(2)δ and Ca(V)γ). Ca(V)α(2)δ is an important component of Ca(V) channels in many tissues and of great interest as a drug...
