REGULATOR OF BASAL CELLULAR CALCIUM CONCENTRATION AND METHODS OF USE

摘要

The invention features methods and compositions for determining states of basal intracellular calcium levels in a eukaryotic cell. Also provided are methods for identifying an agent (e.g., a gene product or small molecule compound) that modulates basal intracellular calcium levels (e.g., by modulating STIM-2 activity), as well as kits and systems for practicing the subject methods.
