Abstract:
Voltage activated L-type Ca(2+) channels are the principal Ca(2+) channels in intestinal smooth muscle cells. They comprise the ion conducting Ca(V)1 pore and the ancillary subunits alpha(2)delta and beta. Of the four Ca(V)beta subunits Ca(V)beta(3) is assumed to be the relevant Ca(V)beta protein in smooth muscle. In protein lysates isolated from mouse ileum longitudinal smooth muscle we could identify the Ca(V)1.2, Ca(V)alpha(2), Ca(V)beta(2) and Ca(V)beta(3) proteins, but not the Ca(V)beta(1)...     »
