Optogenetic Control of Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels.

Guolin Ma, Jindou Liu, Yuepeng Ke, Xin Liu, Minyong Li, Fen Wang, Gang Han, Yun Huang, Youjun Wang, Yubin Zhou
Angewandte Chemie 2018 June 12
Voltage-gated Ca2+ (CaV ) channels mediate Ca2+ entry into excitable cells to regulate a myriad of cellular events following membrane depolarization. We report the engineering of RGK GTPases, a class of genetically encoded CaV channel modulators, to enable photo-tunable modulation of CaV channel activity in excitable mammalian cells. This optogenetic tool (designated optoRGK) tailored for CaV channels could find broad applications in interrogating a wide range of CaV -mediated physiological processes.
