Calmodulin-Cork Model of Gap Junction Channel Gating—One Molecule, Two Mechanisms
The Calmodulin-Cork gating model is based on evidence for the direct role of calmodulin (CaM) in channel gating. Indeed, chemical gating of cell-to-cell channels is sensitive to nanomolar cytosolic calcium concentrations [Ca<sup>2+</sup>]<sub>i</sub>. Calmodulin inhibitors an...
