Functional analysis of a frame-shift mutant of the dihydropyridine receptor pore subunit (α(1S)) expressing two complementary protein fragments

BACKGROUND: The L-type Ca(2+) channel formed by the dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) of skeletal muscle senses the membrane voltage and opens the ryanodine receptor (RyR1). This channel-to-channel coupling is essential for Ca(2+) signaling but poorly understood. We characterized a single-base frame-s...
