Modulation of Ca(V)1.2 Channels by Mg(2+) Acting at an EF-hand Motif in the COOH-terminal Domain

Magnesium levels in cardiac myocytes change in cardiovascular diseases. Intracellular free magnesium (Mg(i)) inhibits L-type Ca(2+) currents through Ca(V)1.2 channels in cardiac myocytes, but the mechanism of this effect is unknown. We hypothesized that Mg(i) acts through the COOH-terminal EF-hand o...
