This paper presents the important finding that BNIP3/NIX, a mitophagy receptor, and its binding to ATG18 are required for mitophagy during muscle cell reorganization in Drosophila. Although the ...
The study introduces new tools for measuring the intracellular calcium concentration close to transmitter release sites, which may be relevant for synaptic vesicle fusion and replenishment. This ...
Researchers have confirmed that mammalian BK ion channels regulate themselves using a “ball-and-chain” mechanism. A recent ...
Calcium ions can trigger a BK channel to open its central passage ... In a widely cited study in 2020, Dr. Nimigean and colleagues revealed this ball-and-chain structure in a simpler potassium channel ...
A new study has unveiled a precise picture of how an ion channel found in most mammalian cells regulates its own function with a 'ball-and-chain' channel-plugging mechanism. The findings boost the ...
Calcium ions can trigger a BK channel to open its central passage ... In a widely cited study in 2020, Dr. Nimigean and colleagues revealed this ball-and-chain structure in a simpler potassium channel ...
A new study has unveiled a precise picture of how an ion channel found in most mammalian cells regulates its own function with a "ball-and-chain ...
Calcium ions can trigger a BK channel to open its ... Dr. Nimigean and colleagues revealed this ball-and-chain structure in a simpler potassium channel called MthK, an evolutionarily distant ...
as well as calcium handling, all of which impact arrhythmia in HF. The mechanisms responsible for the trafficking, anchoring, organization, and recycling of ion channels at the plasma membrane seem to ...
