The ahnak-C1 domain acts as a physiological brake on L-type calcium channels, and the Ile5236Thr genetic variant relieves this inhibition, mimicking sympathetic stimulation.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May inform cardiac calcium channel regulation; leaves open any therapeutic role for ahnak variants in humans.
Haase et al. (2005) studied this question.
