Orientation of the calcium channel beta relative to the alpha(1)2.2 subunit is critical for its regulation of channel activity.

<h4>Background</h4>The Ca(v)beta subunits of high voltage-activated Ca(2+) channels control the trafficking and biophysical properties of the alpha(1) subunit. The Ca(v)beta-alpha(1) interaction site has been mapped by crystallographic studies. Nevertheless, how this interaction leads to...
