Construction of a high-affinity receptor site for dihydropyridine agonists and antagonists by single amino acid substitutions in a non-l-type Ca(2+) channel

The activity of l-type Ca(2+) channels is increased by dihydropyridine (DHP) agonists and inhibited by DHP antagonists, which are widely used in the therapy of cardiovascular disease. These drugs bind to the pore-forming α(1) subunits of l-type Ca(2+) channels. To define the minimal requirements for...
