Amplification of CRAC current by STIM1 and CRACM1 (Orai1)

Abstract

Depletion of intracellular calcium stores activates store-operated calcium entry across the plasma membrane in many cells. STIM1, the putative calcium sensor in the endoplasmic reticulum, and the calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) modulator CRACM1 (also known as Orai1) in the plasma membrane have recently been shown to be essential for controlling the store-operated CRAC current (I(CRAC)). However, individual overexpression of either protein fails to significantly amplify I(CRAC). Here, we show that STIM1 and CRACM1 interact functionally. Overexpression of both proteins greatly potentiates I(CRAC), suggesting that STIM1 and CRACM1 mutually limit store-operated currents and that CRACM1 may be the long-sought CRAC channel.
