Marine Toxins Targeting Ion Channels
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2006-04)
This introductory minireview points out the importance of ion channels for cell communication. The basic concepts on the structure and function of ion channels triggered by membrane voltage changes, the so-called voltage-gated ...
Intracellular magnesium-dependent modulation of gap junction channels formed by neuronal connexin36
(2013)
Gap junction (GJ) channels composed of Connexin36 (Cx36) are widely expressed in the mammalian CNS and form electrical synapses between neurons. Here we describe a novel modulatory mechanism of Cx36 GJ channels dependent ...
Modulatory mechanisms of neuronal gap junctions: the role of intracellular hydrogen and magnesium ions in voltagesensitive gating
(2014)
Electrical synapses formed by connexin-based gap junction (GJ) channels are widely
expressed in the mammalian CNS and are essential for the formation of dynamic cellular
networks that allow activity coordination for ...
Structure and function development during evolution of pentameric ligand gated ion channels
(Smart Science and Technology, 2016-01)
Ligand Gated Ion Channels (LGICs) are receptors widely involved in vertebrate neuronal and non-neuronal signalling as well as muscle activation. Until very recently these receptors, were only known to exist in animal cells ...
Functionally heterogenous ryanodine receptors in avian cerebellum
(1996)
The functional heterogeneity of the ryanodine receptor (RyR) channels in avian cerebellum was defined. Heavy endoplasmic reticulum microsomes had significant levels of ryanodine and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate binding. ...
