An electrostatic mechanism for Ca2+-mediated regulation of gap junction channels
Intercellular signalling can be mediated by gap junction channels, and calcium blocks this signally during tissue injury. Here, the authors use X-ray crystallography and molecular dynamics to show that the calcium forms an electrostatic barrier to prevent transport of cations.
