Calcium regulates acid-sensing ion channel 3 activation by competing with protons in the channel pore and at an allosteric binding site

The extracellular Ca2+ concentration changes locally under certain physiological and pathological conditions. Such variations affect the function of ion channels of the nervous system and consequently also neuronal signalling. We investigated here the mechanisms by which Ca2+ controls the activity o...
