A native prokaryotic voltage-dependent calcium channel with a novel selectivity filter sequence

A native prokaryotic voltage-dependent calcium channel with a novel selectivity filter sequence

Voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels (Cavs) are indispensable for coupling action potentials with Ca2+ signaling in living organisms. The structure of Cavs is similar to that of voltage-dependent Na+ channels (Navs). It is known that prokaryotic Navs can obtain Ca2+ selectivity by negative charge mutatio...
