Synthesis and cytotoxic profile of a diphtheria toxin-neurotrophin-4 chimera.

abstract：:Intracellular calcium ions regulate the structure and functions of cytoskeletal proteins. On the other hand, recent studies have shown that the cytoskeleton, and actin filaments in particular, can modulate calcium influx through plasma membrane ligand- and voltage-gated channels. We now report that calcium release fro...
