Orai1, the pore-forming subunit of the calcium (Ca2+) release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel, plays a central role in store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) in animal cells and thereby serves as a key regulator of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. Disruption of this tightly controlled process is associated with a wide spectrum of human diseases. Dysfunction can result from a multitude of remodeling mechanisms, including...
