Funded Activity Summary

#ERROR: -Transmission and amplification of signals between subcellular compartments underpins cell function. Calcium ions are cellular messengers that can cross Membranes using specialised pores. CRAC Calcium channels in particular are critical for immune system function,and partner Proteins switch them on and off in a feedback response to compartmental Calcium levels. the objective of my research is to investigate how opening and closing of the CRAC pore is triggered at a molecular level.
