Abstract
The family of stromal interaction molecules (STIM) includes two widely expressed single-pass endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transmembrane proteins and additional splice variants that act as precise ER-luminal Ca2+ sensors. STIM proteins mainly function as one of the two essential components of the so-called Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel. The second CRAC channel component is constituted by pore-forming Orai proteins in the plasma membrane. STIM and Orai physically interact with each other to enable CRAC channel opening, which is a critical prerequisite for various downstream signalling pathways such as gene transcription or proliferation. Their activation commonly requires the emptying of the intracellular ER Ca2+ store. Using their Ca2+ sensing capabilities, STIM proteins confer this Ca2+ content-dependent signal to Orai, thereby linking Ca2+ store depletion to CRAC channel opening. Here we review the conformational dynamics occurring along the entire STIM protein upon store depletion, involving the transition from the quiescent, compactly folded structure into an active, extended state, modulation by a variety of accessory components in the cell as well as the impairment of individual steps of the STIM activation cascade associated with disease.

Abstract
Many essential biological processes are triggered by the proximity of molecules. Meanwhile, diverse approaches in synthetic biology, such as new biological parts or engineered cells, have opened up avenues to precisely control the proximity of molecules and eventually downstream signaling processes. This also applies to a main Ca2+ entry pathway into the cell, the so-called Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel. CRAC channels are among other channels are essential in the immune response and are activated by receptor-ligand binding at the cell membrane. The latter initiates a signaling cascade within the cell, which finally triggers the coupling of the two key molecular components of the CRAC channel, namely the stromal interaction molecule, STIM, in the ER membrane and the plasma membrane Ca2+ ion channel, Orai. Ca2+ entry, established via STIM/Orai coupling, is essential for various immune cell functions, including cytokine release, proliferation, and cytotoxicity. In this review, we summarize the tools of synthetic biology that have been used so far to achieve precise control over the CRAC channel pathway and thus over downstream signaling events related to the immune response.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which is composed of a continuous network of tubules and sheets, forms the most widely distributed membrane system in eukaryotic cells. As a result, it engages a variety of organelles by establishing membrane contact sites (MCSs). These contacts regulate organelle positioning and remodeling, including fusion and fission, facilitate precise lipid exchange, and couple vital signaling events. Here, we systematically review recent advances and converging themes on ER-involved organellar contact. The molecular basis, cellular influence, and potential physiological functions for ER/nuclear envelope contacts with mitochondria, Golgi, endosomes, lysosomes, lipid droplets, autophagosomes, and plasma membrane are summarized.

Abstract
In non-excitable cells, Orai proteins represent the main channel for Store-Operated Calcium Entry (SOCE), and also mediate various store-independent Calcium Entry (SICE) pathways. Deregulation of these pathways contribute to increased tumor cell proliferation, migration, metastasis, and angiogenesis. Among Orais, Orai1 is an attractive therapeutic target explaining the development of specific modulators. Therapeutic trials using Orai1 channel inhibitors have been evaluated for treating diverse diseases such as psoriasis and acute pancreatitis, and emerging data suggest that Orai1 channel modulators may be beneficial for cancer treatment. This review discusses herein the importance of Orai1 channel modulators as potential therapeutic tools and the added value of these modulators for treating cancer.

Abstract
Calcium influx through plasma membrane ion channels is crucial for many events in cellular physiology. Cell surface stimuli lead to the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), which binds to IP3 receptors (IP3R) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to release calcium pools from the ER lumen. This leads to the depletion of ER calcium pools, which has been termed store depletion. Store depletion leads to the dissociation of calcium ions from the EF-hand motif of the ER calcium sensor Stromal Interaction Molecule 1 (STIM1). This leads to a conformational change in STIM1, which helps it to interact with the plasma membrane (PM) at ER:PM junctions. At these ER:PM junctions, STIM1 binds to and activates a calcium channel known as Orai1 to form calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channels. Activation of Orai1 leads to calcium influx, known as store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). In addition to Orai1 and STIM1, the homologs of Orai1 and STIM1, such as Orai2/3 and STIM2, also play a crucial role in calcium homeostasis. The influx of calcium through the Orai channel activates a calcium current that has been termed the CRAC current. CRAC channels form multimers and cluster together in large macromolecular assemblies termed "puncta". How CRAC channels form puncta has been contentious since their discovery. In this review, we will outline the history of SOCE, the molecular players involved in this process, as well as the models that have been proposed to explain this critical mechanism in cellular physiology.

Abstract
Ca2+ signal-generation through inter-membrane junctional coupling between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) STIM proteins and plasma membrane (PM) Orai channels, remains a vital but undefined mechanism. We identify two unusual overlapping Phe-His aromatic pairs within the STIM1 apical helix, one of which (F394-H398) mediates important control over Orai1-STIM1 coupling. In resting STIM1, this locus is deeply clamped within the folded STIM1-CC1 helices, likely near to the ER surface. The clamped environment in holo-STIM1 is critical-positive charge replacing Phe-394 constitutively unclamps STIM1, mimicking store-depletion, negative charge irreversibly locks the clamped-state. In store-activated, unclamped STIM1, Phe-394 mediates binding to the Orai1 channel, but His-398 is indispensable for transducing STIM1-binding into Orai1 channel-gating, and is spatially aligned with Phe-394 in the exposed Sα2 helical apex. Thus, the Phe-His locus traverses between ER and PM surfaces and is decisive in the two critical STIM1 functions-unclamping to activate STIM1, and conformational-coupling to gate the Orai1 channel.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a universal Ca2+ influx pathway that is important for the function of many cell types. SOCE is controlled by the interaction of the ER Ca2+ sensor STIM1 with the plasma membrane Ca2+ channel Orai1. S417 is located in the third coiled-coil (CC3) domain of the C-terminus of STIM1. We found that single-point mutation of this residue (S417G) abolished STIM1 C-terminus interactions with Orai1. Mutation of S417 also abolished CAD-Orai1 binding and Orai1 channel activation, eliminated STIM1 puncta formation, and co-localization with Orai1 and SOCE. 2-APB was found to restore the binding of the STIM1 C-terminus mutant (S417G) to Orai1 and dose-dependently activate Orai1 channel. Both CBD and NBD of Orai1 are required for 2-APB-induced coupling between the Orai1 and STIM1 C-terminus mutant (S417G) and CRAC channel activation. We also demonstrated that 2-APB led to delayed activation of Orai1-K85E channel, although Orai1-K85E obviously impairs 2-APB-induced STIM1 C-terminus mutant (S417G)-Orai1 coupling. Our results suggest S417 in the CC3 domain of STIM1 is essential for STIM1-Orai1 binding and CRAC channel activation.

Abstract
Cancer represents a major health burden worldwide. Several molecular targets have been discovered alongside treatments with positive clinical outcomes. However, the reoccurrence of cancer due to therapy resistance remains the primary cause of mortality. Endeavors in pinpointing new markers as molecular targets in cancer therapy are highly desired. The significance of the co-regulation of Ca2+-permeating and Ca2+-regulated ion channels in cancer cell development, proliferation, and migration make them promising molecular targets in cancer therapy. In particular, the co-regulation of the Orai1 and SK3 channels has been well-studied in breast and colon cancer cells, where it finally leads to an invasion-metastasis cascade. Nevertheless, many questions remain unanswered, such as which key molecular components determine and regulate their interplay. To provide a solid foundation for a better understanding of this ion channel co-regulation in cancer, we first shed light on the physiological role of Ca2+ and how this ion is linked to carcinogenesis. Then, we highlight the structure/function relationship of Orai1 and SK3, both individually and in concert, their role in the development of different types of cancer, and aspects that are not yet known in this context.

PKC-Mediated Orai1 Channel Phosphorylation Modulates Ca2+ Signaling in HeLa Cells. Cells 2022; 11:cells11132037.

Abstract
The overexpression of the Orai1 channel inhibits SOCE when using the Ca2+ readdition protocol. However, we found that HeLa cells overexpressing the Orai1 channel displayed enhanced Ca2+ entry and a limited ER depletion in response to the combination of ATP and thapsigargin (TG) in the presence of external Ca2+. As these effects require the combination of an agonist and TG, we decided to study whether the phosphorylation of Orai1 S27/S30 residues had any role using two different mutants: Orai1-S27/30A (O1-AA, phosphorylation-resistant) and Orai1-S27/30D (O1-DD, phosphomimetic). Both O1-wt and O1-AA supported enhanced Ca2+ entry, but this was not the case with O1-E106A (dead-pore mutant), O1-DD, and O1-AA-E106A, while O1-wt, O1-E106A, and O1-DD inhibited the ATP and TG-induced reduction of ER [Ca2+], suggesting that the phosphorylation of O1 S27/30 interferes with the IP3R activity. O1-wt and O1-DD displayed an increased interaction with IP3R in response to ATP and TG; however, the O1-AA channel decreased this interaction. The expression of mCherry-O1-AA increased the frequency of ATP-induced sinusoidal [Ca2+]i oscillations, while mCherry-O1-wt and mCherry-O1-DD decreased this frequency. These data suggest that the combination of ATP and TG stimulates Ca2+ entry, and the phosphorylation of Orai1 S27/30 residues by PKC reduces IP3R-mediated Ca2+ release.

Abstract
Deregulated store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) mediated by aberrant STIM1-ORAI1 signaling is closely implicated in cancer initiation and progression. Here the authors report the identification of an alternatively spliced variant of STIM1, designated STIM1β, that harbors an extra exon to encode 31 additional amino acids in the cytoplasmic domain. STIM1β, highly conserved in mammals, is aberrantly upregulated in glioma tissues to perturb Ca2+ signaling. At the molecular level, the 31-residue insertion destabilizes STIM1β by perturbing its cytosolic inhibitory domain and accelerating its activation kinetics to efficiently engage and gate ORAI calcium channels. Functionally, STIM1β depletion affects SOCE in glioblastoma cells, suppresses tumor cell proliferation and growth both in vitro and in vivo. Collectively, their study establishes a splicing variant-specific tumor-promoting role of STIM1β that can be potentially targeted for glioblastoma intervention.

Abstract
Orai1, the Ca2+-selective pore in the plasma membrane, is one of the key components of the Ca2+release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel complex. Activated by the Ca2+ sensor in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), via direct interaction when ER luminal Ca2+ levels recede, Orai1 helps to maintain Ca2+ homeostasis within a cell. It has already been proven that the C-terminus of Orai1 is indispensable for channel activation. However, there is strong evidence that for CRAC channels to function properly and maintain all typical hallmarks, such as selectivity and reversal potential, additional parts of Orai1 are needed. In this review, we focus on these sites apart from the C-terminus; namely, the second loop and N-terminus of Orai1 and on their multifaceted role in the functioning of CRAC channels.

Abstract
The dimeric ER Ca2+ sensor STIM1 controls store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) through the regulated binding of its CRAC activation domain (CAD) to Orai channels in the plasma membrane. In resting cells, the STIM1 CC1 domain interacts with CAD to suppress SOCE, but the structural basis of this interaction is unclear. Using single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) and protein crosslinking approaches, we show that CC1 interacts dynamically with CAD in a domain-swapped configuration with an orientation predicted to sequester its Orai-binding region adjacent to the ER membrane. Following ER Ca2+ depletion and release from CAD, cysteine crosslinking indicates that the two CC1 domains become closely paired along their entire length in the active Orai-bound state. These findings provide a structural basis for the dual roles of CC1: sequestering CAD to suppress SOCE in resting cells and propelling it toward the plasma membrane to activate Orai and SOCE after store depletion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION/AIMS Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is a reticular Ca2+ sensor composed of a luminal and a cytosolic domain. Autosomal dominant mutations in STIM1 cause tubular aggregate myopathy and Stormorken syndrome or its variant York platelet syndrome. In this study we aimed to expand the features related to new variants in STIM1. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study of individuals harboring monoallelic STIM1 variants recruited at five tertiary centers involved in a study of inherited myopathies analyzed with a multigene-targeted panel. RESULTS We identified seven individuals (age range, 26-57 years) harboring variants in STIM1, including five novel changes: three located in the EF-hand domain, one in the sterile α motif (SAM) domain, and one in the cytoplasmatic region of the protein. Functional evaluation of the pathogenic variants using a heterologous expression system and measuring store-operated calcium entry demonstrated their causative role and suggested a link of new variants with the clinical phenotype. Muscle contractures, found in three individuals, showed variability in body distribution and in the number of joints involved. Three patients showed cardiac and respiratory involvement. Short stature, hyposplenism, sensorineural hearing loss, hypothyroidism, and Gilbert syndrome were variably observed among the patients. Laboratory tests revealed hyperCKemia in six patients, thrombocytopenia in two patients, and hypocalcemia in one patient. Muscle biopsy showed the presence of tubular aggregates in three patients, type I fiber atrophy in one patient, and nonspecific myopathic changes in two patients. DISCUSSION Our clinical, histological, and molecular data expand the genetic and clinical spectrum of STIM1-related diseases.

Abstract
Junctional coupling between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+-sensor STIM proteins and plasma membrane (PM) Orai channels mediates Ca2+ signals in most cells. We reveal that PM-tethered, fluorescently tagged C-terminal M4x (fourth transmembrane helix contains a cytoplasmic C-terminal extension) peptides from Orai channels undergo a Leu-specific signature of direct interaction with the STIM1 Orai-activating region (SOAR), exactly mimicking STIM1 binding to gate Orai channels. The 20-amino-acid Orai3-M4x peptide associates avidly with STIM1 within ER-PM junctions, functions to competitively block native Ca2+ signals, and mediates a key modification of STIM-Orai coupling induced by 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate. By blocking STIM-Orai coupling, the Orai3-M4x peptide reveals the critical role of Orai channels in driving Ca2+ oscillatory signals and transcriptional control through NFAT. The M4x peptides interact independently with SOAR dimers consistent with unimolecular coupling between Orai subunits and STIM1 dimers. We reveal the critical role of M4x helices in defining the coupling interface between STIM and Orai proteins to mediate store-operated Ca2+ signals.

Abstract
Cyclic AMP and Ca2+ are the first second or intracellular messengers identified, unveiling the cellular mechanisms activated by a plethora of extracellular signals, including hormones. Cyclic AMP generation is catalyzed by adenylyl cyclases (ACs), which convert ATP into cAMP and pyrophosphate. By the way, Ca2+, as energy, can neither be created nor be destroyed; Ca2+ can only be transported, from one compartment to another, or chelated by a variety of Ca2+-binding molecules. The fine regulation of cytosolic concentrations of cAMP and free Ca2+ is crucial in cell function and there is an intimate cross-talk between both messengers to fine-tune the cellular responses. Cancer is a multifactorial disease resulting from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Frequent cases of cAMP and/or Ca2+ homeostasis remodeling have been described in cancer cells. In those tumoral cells, cAMP and Ca2+ signaling plays a crucial role in the development of hallmarks of cancer, including enhanced proliferation and migration, invasion, apoptosis resistance, or angiogenesis. This review summarizes the cross-talk between the ACs/cAMP and Ca2+ intracellular pathways with special attention to the functional and reciprocal regulation between Orai1 and AC8 in normal and cancer cells.

Abstract
The interplay between the Ca2+-sensitive adenylyl cyclase 8 (AC8) and Orai1 channels plays an important role both in the activation of the cAMP/PKA signaling and the modulation of Orai1-dependent Ca2+ signals. AC8 interacts with a N-terminal region that is exclusive to the Orai1 long variant, Orai1α. The interaction between both proteins allows the Ca2+ that enters the cell through Orai1α to activate the generation of cAMP by AC8. Subsequent PKA activation results in Orai1α inactivation by phosphorylation at serine-34, thus shaping Orai1-mediated cellular functions. In breast cancer cells, AC8 plays a relevant role supporting a variety of cancer hallmarks, including proliferation and migration. Breast cancer cells overexpress AC8, which shifts the AC8-Orai1 stoichiometry in favor of the former and leads to the impairment of PKA-dependent Orai1α inactivation. This mechanism contributes to the enhanced SOCE observed in triple-negative breast cancer cells. This review summarizes the functional interaction between AC8 and Orai1α in normal and breast cancer cells and its relevance for different cancer features.

Abstract
In eukaryotic cells, ultimate specificity in activation and action-for example, by means of second messengers-of the myriad of signaling cascades is primordial. In fact, versatile and ubiquitous second messengers, such as calcium (Ca2+) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), regulate multiple-sometimes opposite-cellular functions in a specific spatiotemporal manner. Cells achieve this through segregation of the initiators and modulators to specific plasma membrane (PM) subdomains, such as lipid rafts and caveolae, as well as by dynamic close contacts between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and other intracellular organelles, including the PM. Especially, these membrane contact sites (MCSs) are currently receiving a lot of attention as their large influence on cell signaling regulation and cell physiology is increasingly appreciated. Depletion of ER Ca2+ stores activates ER membrane STIM proteins, which activate PM-residing Orai and TRPC Ca2+ channels at ER-PM contact sites. Within the MCS, Ca2+ fluxes relay to cAMP signaling through highly interconnected networks. However, the precise mechanisms of MCS formation and the influence of their dynamic lipid environment on their functional maintenance are not completely understood. The current review aims to provide an overview of our current understanding and to identify open questions of the field.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ sensor stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) interacts with ORAI Ca2+ channels at the plasma membrane to regulate immune and muscle cell function. The conformational changes underlying STIM1 activation, translocation, and ORAI1 trapping and gating, are stringently regulated by post-translational modifications and accessory proteins. Here, we review the recent progress in the identification and characterization of ER and cytosolic proteins interacting with STIM1 to control its activation and deactivation during store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE).

Abstract
Ca2+ ions play a variety of roles in the human body as well as within a single cell. Cellular Ca2+ signal transduction processes are governed by Ca2+ sensing and Ca2+ transporting proteins. In this review, we discuss the Ca2+ and the Ca2+-sensing ion channels with particular focus on the structure-function relationship of the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) ion channel, the Ca2+-activated K+ (KCa2+) ion channels, and their modulation via other cellular components. Moreover, we highlight their roles in healthy signaling processes as well as in disease with a special focus on cancer. As KCa2+ channels are activated via elevations of intracellular Ca2+ levels, we summarize the current knowledge on the action mechanisms of the interplay of CRAC and KCa2+ ion channels and their role in cancer cell development.

Abstract
Several studies have indicated the biological role of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake in cancer pathophysiology; however, its implications in predicting the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are not yet fully understood. Here, we collected tumor specimens and adjacent normal liver tissues from 354 confirmed HCC patients and analyzed the levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) responsive element binding protein 1 (CREB), mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU), mitochondrial calcium uptake 1 and 2 (MICU1, MICU2) using bioinformatics, qRT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry (IHC), and their relationship with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis. HCC patients with low CREB/MICU1 and high MCU/MICU2 expression exhibited poor survival rate and prognosis in overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) analyses. Low CREB/MICU1 and low MICU1 alone indicated poor prognosis in stage I/II and III/IV patients, respectively. In the poor differentiation/undifferentiation group, low expression of MICU1 indicated poor clinical outcomes. Low CREB/MICU1 expression suggested poor outcomes in patients with or without hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and poor prognosis in the HCV infection group. In the non- hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection group, low MCU1 indicated a poor prognosis. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that CREB and MICU1 expression showed prognostic significance. This study demonstrates the prognostic significance of CREB, MCU, MICU1, and MICU2, in predicting HCC outcomes. Low CREB/MICU1 and high MCU/MICU2 in HCC tissues are associated with poor prognosis, thus offering a novel perspective in the clinical management for HCC patients.

Abstract
Tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM) is a progressive disorder characterized by muscle weakness, cramps, and myalgia. TAM clinically overlaps with Stormorken syndrome (STRMK), combining TAM with miosis, thrombocytopenia, hyposplenism, ichthyosis, short stature, and dyslexia. TAM and STRMK arise from gain-of-function mutations in STIM1 (stromal interaction molecule 1) or ORAI1, both encoding key regulators of Ca2+ homeostasis, and mutations in either gene result in excessive extracellular Ca2+ entry. The pathomechanistic similarities and differences between TAM and STRMK are only partially understood. Here we provide functional in vitro experiments demonstrating that STIM1 harboring the TAM D84G or the STRMK R304W mutation similarly cluster and exert a dominant effect on the wild-type protein. Both mutants recruit ORAI1 to the clusters, increase cytosolic Ca2+ levels, promote major nuclear import of the Ca2+ -dependent transcription factor NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T cells), and trigger the formation of circular membrane stacks. In conclusion, the analyzed TAM and STRMK mutations have a comparable impact on STIM1 protein function and downstream effects of excessive Ca2+ entry, highlighting that TAM and STRMK involve a common pathomechanism.

Abstract
Eukaryotic membrane-bound organelles, exhibiting distinctive morphologies, dynamics and functions, are interconnected at membrane contact sites (MCSs) through numerous tethering machineries. MCSs are required for many fundamental cellular processes, such as non-vesicular lipid transfer, calcium transport and organelle homeostasis. Actin cytoskeleton and myosin motors are known to dynamically interact with different membrane boundaries, facilitating organelle movements and partitioning. Intriguingly, recent studies have pinpointed a special participation of actomyosin at various MCSs involving the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the most extensive membranous organelle in the cell. Here, I summarize emerging roles of ER MCSs in modulating actomyosin structures and discuss feedback functions of such actomyosin regulation at these MCSs.

Abstract
Immunity to fungal infections is mediated by cells of the innate and adaptive immune system including Th17 cells. Ca2+ influx in immune cells is regulated by stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) and its activation of the Ca2+ channel ORAI1. We here identify patients with a novel mutation in STIM1 (p.L374P) that abolished Ca2+ influx and resulted in increased susceptibility to fungal and other infections. In mice, deletion of STIM1 in all immune cells enhanced susceptibility to mucosal C. albicans infection, whereas T cell‐specific deletion of STIM1 impaired immunity to systemic C. albicans infection. STIM1 deletion impaired the production of Th17 cytokines essential for antifungal immunity and compromised the expression of genes in several metabolic pathways including Foxo and HIF1α signaling that regulate glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Our study further revealed distinct roles of STIM1 in regulating transcription and metabolic programs in non‐pathogenic Th17 cells compared to pathogenic, proinflammatory Th17 cells, a finding that may potentially be exploited for the treatment of Th17 cell‐mediated inflammatory diseases.

STIM2 targets Orai1/STIM1 to the AKAP79 signaling complex and confers coupling of Ca 2+ entry with NFAT1 activation. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2020; 117:16638-16648.

Abstract
The Orai1 channel is regulated by stromal interaction molecules STIM1 and STIM2 within endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-plasma membrane (PM) contact sites. Ca2+ signals generated by Orai1 activate Ca2+-dependent gene expression. When compared with STIM1, STIM2 is a weak activator of Orai1, but it has been suggested to have a unique role in nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFAT1) activation triggered by Orai1-mediated Ca2+ entry. In this study, we examined the contribution of STIM2 in NFAT1 activation. We report that STIM2 recruitment of Orai1/STIM1 to ER-PM junctions in response to depletion of ER-Ca2+ promotes assembly of the channel with AKAP79 to form a signaling complex that couples Orai1 channel function to the activation of NFAT1. Knockdown of STIM2 expression had relatively little effect on Orai1/STIM1 clustering or local and global [Ca2+]i increases but significantly attenuated NFAT1 activation and assembly of Orai1 with AKAP79. STIM1ΔK, which lacks the PIP2-binding polybasic domain, was recruited to ER-PM junctions following ER-Ca2+ depletion by binding to Orai1 and caused local and global [Ca2+]i increases comparable to those induced by STIM1 activation of Orai1. However, in contrast to STIM1, STIM1ΔK induced less NFAT1 activation and attenuated the association of Orai1 with STIM2 and AKAP79. Orai1-AKAP79 interaction and NFAT1 activation were recovered by coexpressing STIM2 with STIM1ΔK. Replacing the PIP2-binding domain of STIM1 with that of STIM2 eliminated the requirement of STIM2 for NFAT1 activation. Together, these data demonstrate an important role for STIM2 in coupling Orai1-mediated Ca2+ influx to NFAT1 activation.

Abstract
Ion channels in particular Calcium (Ca2+) channels play a critical role in physiology by regulating plethora of cellular processes ranging from cell proliferation, differentiation, transcriptional regulation and programmed cell death. One such physiologically important and highly Ca2+ selective channel family is Orai channels consisting of three homologs Orai1, Orai2 and Orai3. Orai channels are responsible for Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane in response to decrease in Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Ca2+ stores. STIM1/STIM2 proteins sense the reduction in ER Ca2+ levels and activate Orai channels for restoring ER Ca2+ as well as for driving cellular functions. This signaling cascade is known as Store Operated Ca2+ Entry (SOCE). Although Orai1 is the ubiquitous SOCE channel protein, Orai2 and Orai3 mediate SOCE in certain specific tissues. Further, mammalian specific homolog Orai3 forms heteromultimeric channel with Orai1 for constituting Arachidonic acid regulated Ca2+ (ARC) channels or arachidonic acid metabolite Leukotriene C4 (LTC4) regulated Ca2+ (LRC) channels. Literature suggests that Orai3 regulates Breast, Prostate, Lung and Gastrointestinal cancers by either forming Store Operated Ca2+ (SOC) or ARC/LRC channels in the cancerous cells but not in healthy tissue. In this review, we would discuss the role of Orai3 in these cancers and would highlight the potential of therapeutic targeting of Orai3 for better management and treatment of cancer. Finally, we will deliberate on key outstanding questions in the field that demand critical attention and further studies.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) is a universal signaling ion that is essential for the life and death processes of all eukaryotes. In humans, numerous cell stimulation pathways lead to the mobilization of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (S/ER) stored Ca2+, resulting in the propagation of Ca2+ signals through the activation of processes, such as store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). SOCE provides a sustained Ca2+ entry into the cytosol; moreover, the uptake of SOCE-mediated Ca2+ by mitochondria can shape cytosolic Ca2+ signals, function as a feedback signal for the SOCE molecular machinery, and drive numerous mitochondrial processes, including adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production and distinct cell death pathways. In recent years, tremendous progress has been made in identifying the proteins mediating these signaling pathways and elucidating molecular structures, invaluable for understanding the underlying mechanisms of function. Nevertheless, there remains a disconnect between using this accumulating protein structural knowledge and the design of new research tools and therapies. In this review, we provide an overview of the Ca2+ signaling pathways that are involved in mediating S/ER stored Ca2+ release, SOCE, and mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake, as well as pinpoint multiple levels of crosstalk between these pathways. Further, we highlight the significant protein structures elucidated in recent years controlling these Ca2+ signaling pathways. Finally, we describe a simple strategy that aimed at applying the protein structural data to initiating drug design.

Abstract
Store-operated calcium (Ca2+) entry (SOCE) occurs through a widely distributed family of ion channels activated by the loss of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The best understood of these is the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel, which is notable for its unique activation mechanism as well as its many essential physiological functions and the diverse pathologies that result from dysregulation. In response to ER Ca2+ depletion, CRAC channels are formed through a diffusion trap mechanism at ER-plasma membrane (PM) junctions, where the ER Ca2+-sensing stromal interaction molecule (STIM) proteins bind and activate hexamers of Orai pore-forming proteins to trigger Ca2+ entry. Cell biological studies are clarifying the architecture of ER-PM junctions, their roles in Ca2+ and lipid transport, and functional interactions with cytoskeletal proteins. Molecular structures of STIM and Orai have inspired a multitude of mutagenesis and electrophysiological studies that reveal potential mechanisms for how STIM is toggled between inactive and active states, how it binds and activates Orai, and the importance of STIM-binding stoichiometry for opening the channel and establishing its signature characteristics of extremely high Ca2+ selectivity and low Ca2+ conductance.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) and cyclic AMP (cAMP) signaling cross talk and synergize to stimulate the cardinal functions of exocrine cells, regulated exocytosis, and fluid and electrolyte secretion. This physiological process requires the organization of the two signaling pathways into complexes at defined cellular domains and close placement. Such domains are formed by membrane contact sites (MCS). This review discusses the basic properties of Ca2+ signaling in exocrine cells, the role of MCS in the organization of cell signaling and in cross talk and synergism between the Ca2+ and cAMP signaling pathways and, finally, the mechanism by which the Ca2+ and cAMP pathways synergize to stimulate epithelial fluid and electrolyte secretion.

Abstract
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is an independent risk for heart failure (HF) and sudden death. Deciphering signaling pathways regulating intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis that control adaptive and pathological cardiac growth may enable identification of novel therapeutic targets. The objective of the present study is to determine the role of the store-operated calcium entry-associated regulatory factor (Saraf), encoded by the Tmem66 gene, on cardiac growth control in vitro and in vivo. Saraf is a single-pass membrane protein located at the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum and regulates intracellular calcium homeostasis. We found that Saraf expression was upregulated in the hypertrophied myocardium and was sufficient for cell growth in response to neurohumoral stimulation. Increased Saraf expression caused cell growth, which was associated with dysregulation of calcium-dependent signaling and sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium content. In vivo, Saraf augmented cardiac myocyte growth in response to angiotensin II and resulted in increased cardiac remodeling together with worsened cardiac function. Mechanistically, Saraf activated mTORC1 (mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1) and increased protein synthesis, while mTORC1 inhibition blunted Saraf-dependent cell growth. In contrast, the hearts of Saraf knockout mice and Saraf-deficient myocytes did not show any morphological or functional alterations after neurohumoral stimulation, but Saraf depletion resulted in worsened cardiac function after acute pressure overload. SARAF knockout blunted transverse aortic constriction cardiac myocyte hypertrophy and impaired cardiac function, demonstrating a role for SARAF in compensatory myocyte growth. Collectively, these results reveal a novel link between sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium homeostasis and mTORC1 activation that is regulated by Saraf.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a major Ca2+ influx pathway that is controlled by the ER Ca2+ sensor STIM1. Abnormal activation of STIM1 directly influences Ca2+ influx, resulting in severe diseases such as Stormorken syndrome. The inactivation domain of STIM1 (IDstim) has been identified as being essential for Ca2+-dependent inactivation of STIM1 (CDI) after SOCE occurs. However, it is unknown whether IDstim is involved in keeping STIM1 inactive before CDI. Herein, we show that IDstim helps STIM1 keep inactive through intramolecular binding with the coiled-coil domain. Between IDstim and the coiled-coil domain, we found a short conserved linker whose extension or mutation leads to the constitutive activation of STIM1. We have demonstrated that IDstim needs the coiled-coil domain 1 (CC1) to inhibit the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) activation domain (CAD) activity and binds to a CC1-CAD fragment. Serial deletion of CC1 revealed that CC1α1 is a co-inhibitory domain of IDstim. CC1α1 deletion or leucine mutation, which abolishes the closed conformation, impaired the inhibitory effect and binding of IDstim. These results suggest that IDstim cooperates with CC1α1 to help STIM1 keep inactive under resting conditions.

The two key players in this process are the stromal interaction molecule (STIM), a Ca2+ sensor embedded in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum, and Orai, a highly Ca2+ selective ion channel located in the plasma membrane. Upon depletion of the internal Ca2+ stores, STIM is activated, oligomerizes, couples to and activates Orai. This review provides an overview of novel findings about the CRAC channel activation mechanisms, structure and gating. In addition, it highlights, among diverse STIM and Orai mutants, also the disease-related mutants and their implications.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a ubiquitous mechanism for Ca2+ influx in mammalian cells with important physiological implications. Since the discovery of SOCE more than three decades ago, the mechanism that communicates the information about the amount of Ca2+ accumulated in the intracellular Ca2+ stores to the plasma membrane channels and the nature of these channels have been matters of intense investigation and debate. The stromal interaction molecule-1 (STIM1) has been identified as the Ca2+ sensor of the intracellular Ca2+ compartments that activates the store-operated channels. STIM1 regulates two types of store-dependent channels: the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels, formed by Orai1 subunits, that conduct the highly Ca2+ selective current I CRAC and the cation permeable store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels, which consist of Orai1 and TRPC1 proteins and conduct the non-selective current I SOC. While the crystal structure of Drosophila CRAC channel has already been solved, the architecture of the SOC channels still remains unclear. The dynamic interaction of STIM1 with the store-operated channels is modulated by a number of proteins that either support the formation of the functional STIM1-channel complex or protect the cell against Ca2+ overload.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+ ) acts as a ubiquitous second messenger, and normal cell and tissue physiology strictly depends on the precise regulation of Ca2+ entry, storage, and release. Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a major mechanism controlling extracellular Ca2+ entry, and mainly relies on the accurate interplay between the Ca2+ sensor STIM1 and the Ca2+ channel ORAI1. Mutations in STIM1 or ORAI1 result in abnormal Ca2+ homeostasis and are associated with severe human disorders. Recessive loss-of-function mutations impair SOCE and cause combined immunodeficiency, while dominant gain-of-function mutations induce excessive extracellular Ca2+ entry and cause tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM) and Stormorken syndrome (STRMK). TAM and STRMK are spectra of the same multisystemic disease characterized by muscle weakness, miosis, thrombocytopenia, hyposplenism, ichthyosis, dyslexia, and short stature. To date, 42 TAM/STRMK families have been described, and here we report five additional families for which we provide clinical, histological, ultrastructural, and genetic data. In this study, we list and review all new and previously reported STIM1 and ORAI1 cases, discuss the pathomechanisms of the mutations based on the known functions and the protein structure of STIM1 and ORAI1, draw a genotype/phenotype correlation, and delineate an efficient screening strategy for the molecular diagnosis of TAM/STRMK.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE), the fundamental Ca2+ signaling mechanism in myogenesis, is mediated by stromal interaction molecule (STIM), which senses the depletion of endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stores and induces Ca2+ influx by activating Orai channels in the plasma membrane. Recently, STIM2β, an eight-residue-inserted splice variant of STIM2, was found to act as an inhibitor of SOCE. Although a previous study demonstrated an increase in STIM2β splicing during in vitro differentiation of skeletal muscle, the underlying mechanism and detailed function of STIM2β in myogenesis remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the function of STIM2β in myogenesis using the C2C12 cell line with RNA interference-mediated knockdown and CRISPR-Cas-mediated knockout approaches. Deletion of STIM2β delayed myogenic differentiation through the MEF2C and NFAT4 pathway in C2C12 cells. Further, loss of STIM2β increased cell proliferation by altering Ca2+ homeostasis and inhibited cell cycle arrest mediated by the cyclin D1-CDK4 degradation pathway. Thus, this study identified a previously unknown function of STIM2β in myogenesis and improves the understanding of how cells effectively regulate the development process via alternative splicing.

Abstract
The control of calcium influx at the plasma membrane by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium stores, a process common to invertebrates and vertebrates, is central to physiological calcium signalling and cellular calcium balance. Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is a calcium sensor and regulatory protein localized to the ER. ORAI1 is a calcium channel in the plasma membrane (PM). In outline, STIM1 senses an ER-luminal calcium decrease, relocalizes to ER-PM junctions, and recruits and gates ORAI1 channels. Recent work, reviewed here, has offered detailed insight into the process of sensing and communicating ER calcium-store depletion, and particularly into the STIM1 conformational change that is the basis for communication between the ER and the PM.

Abstract
Ca2+ ions represent versatile second messengers that regulate a huge diversity of processes throughout the cell's life. One prominent Ca2+ entry pathway into the cell is the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) ion channel. It is fully reconstituted by the two molecular key players: the stromal interaction molecule (STIM1) and Orai. STIM1 is a Ca2+ sensor located in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum, and Orai, a highly Ca2+ selective ion channel embedded in the plasma membrane. Ca2+ store-depletion leads initially to the activation of STIM1 which subsequently activates Orai channels via direct binding. Authentic CRAC channel hallmarks and biophysical characteristics include high Ca2+ selectivity with a reversal potential in the range of + 50 mV, small unitary conductance, fast Ca2+-dependent inactivation and enhancements in currents upon the switch from a Na+-containing divalent-free to a Ca2+-containing solution. This review provides an overview on the critical determinants and structures within the STIM1 and Orai proteins that establish these prominent CRAC channel characteristics.

Abstract
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) are specialized subcellular compartments formed by closely apposed membranes from two organelles. The intermembrane gap is separated by a distance ranging from 10 to 35 nm. MCSs are typically maintained through dynamic protein–protein and protein–lipid interactions. These intermembrane contact sites constitute important intracellular signalling hotspots to mediate a plethora of cellular processes, including calcium homeostasis, lipid metabolism, membrane biogenesis and organelle remodelling. In recent years, a series of genetically encoded probes and chemogenetic or optogenetic actuators have been invented to aid the visualization and interrogation of MCSs in both fixed and living cells. These molecular tools have greatly accelerated the pace of mechanistic dissection of membrane contact sites at the molecular level. In this review, we present an overview on the latest progress in this endeavour, and provide a general guide to the selection of methods and molecular tools for probing interorganellar membrane contact sites.

Abstract
Store-Operated Calcium Entry (SOCE) plays key roles in cell proliferation, muscle contraction, immune responses, and memory formation. The coordinated interactions of a number of proteins from the plasma and endoplasmic reticulum membranes control SOCE to replenish internal Ca2+ stores and generate intracellular Ca2+ signals. SARAF, an endoplasmic reticulum resident component of the SOCE pathway having no homology to any characterized protein, serves as an important brake on SOCE. Here, we describe the X-ray crystal structure of the SARAF luminal domain, SARAFL. This domain forms a novel 10-stranded β-sandwich fold that includes a set of three conserved disulfide bonds, denoted the "SARAF-fold." The structure reveals a domain-swapped dimer in which the last two β-strands (β9 and β10) are exchanged forming a region denoted the "SARAF luminal switch" that is essential for dimerization. Sequence comparisons reveal that the SARAF-fold is highly conserved in vertebrates and in a variety of pathologic fungi. Förster resonance energy transfer experiments using full-length SARAF validate the formation of the domain-swapped dimer in cells and demonstrate that dimerization is reversible. A designed variant lacking the SARAF luminal switch shows that the domain swapping is essential to function and indicates that the SARAF dimer accelerates SOCE inactivation.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry through Orai1 channels is a primary mechanism for Ca2+ entry in many cells and mediates numerous cellular effector functions ranging from gene transcription to exocytosis. Orai1 channels are amongst the most Ca2+ -selective channels known and are activated by direct physical interactions with the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ sensor stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) in response to store depletion triggered by stimulation of a variety of cell surface G-protein coupled and tyrosine kinase receptors. Work in the last decade has revealed that the Orai1 gating process is highly cooperative and strongly allosteric, likely driven by a wave of interdependent conformational changes throughout the protein originating in the peripheral C-terminal ligand binding site and culminating in pore opening. In this review, we survey the structural and molecular features in Orai1 that contribute to channel gating and consider how they give rise to the unique biophysical fingerprint of Orai1 currents.

Abstract
STIM1 and STIM2 are endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane proteins that sense decreases in ER-luminal free Ca2+ and, through a conformational change in the STIM cytoplasmic domain, control gating of the plasma membrane Ca2+ channel ORAI1. To determine how STIM1 conveys a signal from the ER lumen to the cytoplasm, we studied the Ca2+-dependent conformational change of engineered STIM1 proteins in isolated ER membranes and, in parallel, physiological activation of these proteins in cells. We find that conserved "sentinel" features of the CC1 region help to prevent activation while Ca2+ is bound to STIM ER-luminal domains. Reduced ER-luminal Ca2+ drives a concerted conformational change, in which STIM luminal domains rearrange and the STIM transmembrane helices and initial parts of the CC1 regions pair in an extended coiled coil. This intradimer rearrangement overcomes the relatively weak CC1-SOAR/CAD interactions that hold STIM in an inactive conformation, releasing the SOAR/CAD domain to activate ORAI channels.

Abstract
Substantial progress has been made in the past several years in establishing the stoichiometries of STIM and Orai proteins and understanding their influence on store-operated calcium entry. Depletion of ER Ca2+ triggers STIM1 to accumulate at ER-plasma membrane junctions where it binds and opens Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels. STIM1 is a dimer, and release of Ca2+ from its two luminal domains is reported to promote their association as well as drive formation of higher-order STIM1 oligomers. The CRAC channel, originally thought to be tetrameric, is now considered to be a hexamer of Orai1 subunits based on crystallographic and electrophysiological studies. STIM1 binding activates CRAC channels in a highly nonlinear way, such that all six Orai1 binding sites must be occupied to account for the activation and signature properties of native channels. The structural basis of STIM1 engagement with the channel is currently unclear, with evidence suggesting that STIM1 dimers bind to individual or pairs of Orai1 subunits. This review examines evidence that has led to points of consensus and debate about STIM1 and Orai1 stoichiometries, and explains the importance of STIM-Orai complex stoichiometry for the regulation of store-operated calcium entry.

Abstract
A primary calcium (Ca2+) entry pathway into non-excitable cells is through the store-operated Ca2+ release activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel. Ca2+ entry into cells is responsible for the initiation of diverse signalling cascades that affect essential cellular processes like gene regulation, cell growth and death, secretion and gene transcription. Upon depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the CRAC channel opens to refill depleted stores. The two key limiting molecular players of the CRAC channel are the stromal interaction molecule (STIM1) embedded in the ER-membrane and Orai1, residing in the plasma membrane (PM), respectively. Together, they form a highly Ca2+ selective ion channel complex. STIM1 senses the Ca2+ content of the ER and confers Ca2+ store-depletion into the opening of Orai1 channels in the PM for triggering Ca2+-dependent gene transcription, T-cell activation or mast cell degranulation. The interplay of Orai and STIM proteins in the CRAC channel signalling cascade has been the main focus of research for more than twelve years. This chapter focuses on current knowledge and main experimental advances in the understanding of Orai1 activation by STIM1, thereby portraying key mechanistic steps in the CRAC channel signalling cascade.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) is an essential regulator for a large number of cellular functions in various tissues and organs, and small disturbances of Ca2+ homeostasis can severely compromise normal physiology. Intracellular Ca2+ balance is mainly controlled by the reticular Ca2+ sensor STIM1 and the plasma membrane Ca2+ channel ORAI1 through a mechanism known as store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). Gain-of-function mutations in STIM1 or ORAI1 cause excessive extracellular Ca2+ influx, resulting in tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM) and Stormorken syndrome (STRMK). Both disorders are spectra of the same disease and involve muscle weakness, miosis, thrombocytopenia, hyposplenism, ichthyosis, dyslexia, and short stature. Here we summarize the clinical and histological characteristics of both disorders, provide an overview on the genetic causes, and recapitulate the current knowledge on the pathomechanisms leading to the multi-systemic phenotype of tubular aggregate myopathy and Stormorken syndrome.

Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) monitors ER-luminal Ca2+ levels to maintain cellular Ca2+ balance and to support Ca2+ signalling. The prevailing view has been that STIM1 senses reduced ER Ca2+ through dissociation of bound Ca2+ from a single EF-hand site, which triggers a dramatic loss of secondary structure and dimerization of the STIM1 luminal domain. Here we find that the STIM1 luminal domain has 5-6 Ca2+-binding sites, that binding at these sites is energetically coupled to binding at the EF-hand site, and that Ca2+ dissociation controls a switch to a second structured conformation of the luminal domain rather than protein unfolding. Importantly, the other luminal-domain Ca2+-binding sites interact with the EF-hand site to control physiological activation of STIM1 in cells. These findings fundamentally revise our understanding of physiological Ca2+ sensing by STIM1, and highlight molecular mechanisms that govern the Ca2+ threshold for activation and the steep Ca2+ concentration dependence.

The 2β Splice Variation Alters the Structure and Function of the Stromal Interaction Molecule Coiled-Coil Domains. Int J Mol Sci 2018; 19:ijms19113316. [PMID: 30366379 PMCID: PMC6274866 DOI: 10.3390/ijms19113316] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2018] [Revised: 10/21/2018] [Accepted: 10/22/2018] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule (STIM)-1 and -2 regulate agonist-induced and basal cytosolic calcium (Ca2+) levels after oligomerization and translocation to endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-plasma membrane (PM) junctions. At these junctions, the STIM cytosolic coiled-coil (CC) domains couple to PM Orai1 proteins and gate these Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels, which facilitate store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). Unlike STIM1 and STIM2, which are SOCE activators, the STIM2β splice variant contains an 8-residue insert located within the conserved CCs which inhibits SOCE. It remains unclear if the 2β insert further depotentiates weak STIM2 coupling to Orai1 or independently causes structural perturbations which prevent SOCE. Here, we use far-UV circular dichroism, light scattering, exposed hydrophobicity analysis, solution small angle X-ray scattering, and a chimeric STIM1/STIM2β functional assessment to provide insights into the molecular mechanism by which the 2β insert precludes SOCE activation. We find that the 2β insert reduces the overall α-helicity and enhances the exposed hydrophobicity of the STIM2 CC domains in the absence of a global conformational change. Remarkably, incorporation of the 2β insert into the STIM1 context not only affects the secondary structure and hydrophobicity as observed for STIM2, but also eliminates the more robust SOCE response mediated by STIM1. Collectively, our data show that the 2β insert directly precludes Orai1 channel activation by inducing structural perturbations in the STIM CC region.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) is a key regulator for a large number of cellular functions in all kinds of cells, and small disturbances of Ca2+ homeostasis can severely compromise normal physiology in various tissues and organs. A major mechanism controlling Ca2+ homeostasis is store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE), which relies on the concerted action of the reticular Ca2+ sensor STIM1 and the plasma membrane Ca2+ channel ORAI1. Gain-of-function mutations in the respective genes induce excessive Ca2+ entry, and cause tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM) and Stormorken syndrome. Both disorders are part of a clinical continuum and involve muscle weakness and additional variably pronounced features including miosis, thrombocytopenia, hyposplenism, ichthyosis, dyslexia, and short stature. Mutations in the reticular Ca2+ buffer calsequestrin (CASQ1) have moreover been associated with the mild end of the TAM/Stormorken syndrome spectrum. Here we review the clinical and histological characteristics of both disorders, provide an overview on the genetic causes, and thereby focus on the pathomechanisms leading to muscle dysfunction and the multi-systemic phenotype of tubular aggregate myopathy and Stormorken syndrome.
