STIM1 activates CRAC channels through rotation of the pore helix to open a hydrophobic gate
Store-operated Ca2+channels (CRAC) are involved in several cellular functions. Here the authors identify a hydrophobic gate in the CRAC pore and show that CRAC activation by STIM1 involves rotation of the pore helix that hydrates this region to allow ion passage through the pore.
