Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In our analyzing TRIC and MG23 proteins in intracellular Ca2+ stores, we detected several new findings including major issues as described below. 1) TRIC-A-mediated activation of ryanodine receptors is essential for normal cardiac functions, and this activation is likely caused by direct protein-protein interaction between them. 2) In contrast to TRIC-A, TRIC-B frequently shows cooperative gating, and the unique may contribute to the support of IP3 receptor-mediated Ca2+ release. 3) We found spontaneous Ca2+ entry mediated by TRP family channel members in growth plate chondrocytes and peritoneal macrophages.
