Exploring the kinetics of the interactions controlling the gating of the Ca2+-release activated Ca2+ channel

Calcium- release activated calcium channels (ORAI) are essential for sustained cytosol [Ca2+] elevation which is required for T cell activation and adaptive immunity. Upon ER luminal Ca2+ depletion, ER Ca2+ sensor STIM1 aggregates and translocates to the ER-PM junction, where it binds and activates...
