Animal Ca(2+ )release-activated Ca(2+ )(CRAC) channels appear to be homologous to and derived from the ubiquitous cation diffusion facilitators

BACKGROUND: Antigen stimulation of immune cells triggers Ca(2+ )entry through Ca(2+ )release-activated Ca(2+ )(CRAC) channels, promoting an immune response to pathogens.
