The main molecular components of this pathway appear to be known. However, the molecular make-up of channels mediating ROCE and SOCE is largely unknown. One hypothesis proposes SOCE channels to be formed solely by Orai proteins. Another proposes SOCE channels to be composed of both Orai and C-type transient receptor potential (TRPC) proteins. Both hypotheses propose that the channels are activated by STIM1, a sensor of the filling state of the Ca\n 2+\n stores that activates Ca\n 2+\n entry when stores are depleted. The role of Orai in SOCE has been proven. Here we show the TRPC-dependent reconstitution of Icrac, the electrophysiological correlate to SOCE, by expression of Orai1; we also show that R91W-Orai1 can inhibit SOCE and ROCE and that Orai1 and STIM1 expression leads to functional expression of Gd-resistant ROCE. Because channels that mediate ROCE are accepted to be formed with the participation of TRPCs, our data show functional interaction between ROCE and SOCE components. We propose that SOCE/Icrac channels are composed of heteromeric complexes that include TRPCs and Orai proteins.\n ","journal":"Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences","year":2008,"id":25011,"datarank":10.207514096273188,"base_score":5.68697535633982,"endowment":5.68697535633982,"self_citation_contribution":0.8530463034509732,"citation_network_contribution":9.354467792822215,"self_endowment_contribution":0.8530463034509732,"citer_contribution":9.354467792822215,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":294,"citer_count":200,"citers_with_citation_signal":200,"citers_with_endowment":200,"datacite_reuse_total":12,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":null,"is_oa":false,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":147725,"name":"Christian Erxleben","orcid":null,"position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":147727,"name":"Joel Abramowitz","orcid":null,"position":2,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":146077,"name":"Veit Flockerzi","orcid":null,"position":3,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":148372,"name":"Michael Xi Zhu","orcid":null,"position":4,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":147728,"name":"David L.
