Abstract excerpt
Calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) mutations or altered expression cause disorders of calcium handling. Recent studies suggest that reduced targeting to the plasma membrane is a feature common to many CaSR loss-of-function mutations. Allosteric agonists (calcimimetics) can rescue signaling of a subset of CaSR mutants. This review evaluates our current understanding of the subcellular site(s) for allosteric modulator...
