The mechanism of MICU-dependent gating of the mitochondrial Ca2+uniporter

The mechanism of MICU-dependent gating of the mitochondrial Ca2+uniporter

Ca2+ entry into mitochondria is through the mitochondrial calcium uniporter complex (MCUcx), a Ca2+-selective channel composed of five subunit types. Two MCUcx subunits (MCU and EMRE) span the inner mitochondrial membrane, while three Ca2+-regulatory subunits (MICU1, MICU2, and MICU3) reside in the...
