Are there multiple ways to direct attention in working memory?

abstract：:In this short review, we have described studies that have identified Arg415 in the Ca2+ release channel as a residue that influences channel sensitivity to Ca2+ induced Ca2+ release, rate of Ca2+ release, and channel closing. We have also described studies that confirm Dr. Numa's predictions that residues 4246-4267, 4...
