Store-independent modulation of Ca2+ entry through Orai by Septin 7

Orai channels are required for store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) in multiple cell types. Septins are a class of GTP-binding proteins that function as diffusion barriers in cells. Here we show that Septin 7 acts as a ‘molecular brake’ on activation of Orai channels in Drosophila neurons. Lowering Sept...
