Identification of a unique Ca2+-binding site in rat acid-sensing ion channel 3

Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) sense changes in extracellular acidity with Ca2+ as an allosteric modulator and channel blocker. Here authors use electrophysiology and molecular dynamics simulation to identify the residue in ASIC3 which modulates proton sensitivity and contributes to the Ca2+ bloc...
