I-II loop structural determinants in the gating and surface expression of low voltage-activated calcium channels.

The intracellular loops that interlink the four transmembrane domains of Ca(2+)- and Na(+)-channels (Ca(v), Na(v)) have critical roles in numerous forms of channel regulation. In particular, the intracellular loop that joins repeats I and II (I-II loop) in high voltage-activated (HVA) Ca(2+) channel...
