Abstract excerpt
L-type Ca(2+) channels (LTCCs) play a critical role in Ca(2+)-dependent signaling processes in a variety of cell types. The number of functional LTCCs at the plasma membrane strongly influences the strength and duration of Ca(2+) signals. Recent studies demonstrated that endosomal trafficking provides a mechanism for dynamic changes in LTCC surface membrane density. The purpose of the current study was to...
