Mechanisms involved in lipid modulation of voltage-gated N- and L-type calcium channels by the slow pathway. The subunit structure of high threshold neuronal calcium channel complexes is illustrated together with a putative fatty acid regulatory domain (RD) that can also bind the palmitic acid side chains present in the N terminus of β2a subunits. For details see text. PLC, phospholipase C; PLA2, phospholipase A2; DAG-L, diacylglycerol lipase; PIP2, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate; IP3, inositol trisphosphate; βnp, nonpalmitoylated β subunit.
