The STIM1-binding site nexus remotely controls Orai1 channel gating

How plasma membrane Orai Ca2+ channels are activated by STIM proteins to activate Ca2+signals is still not fully known. Here the authors show that a nexus region located at the Orai1 C-terminus allows channel gating without a direct interaction of STIM1 with the channel pore.
