Abstract

In this review, we describe the background and implications of our recent discovery that two-pore channels (TPCs) comprise a novel class of calcium release channels gated by the intracellular messenger nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). Their localisation to the endolysosomal system highlights a new function for these organelles as targets for NAADP-mediated Ca2+ mobilisation. In addition, we describe how TPCs may also trigger further Ca2+ release by coupling to the endoplasmic reticular stores through activation of IP3 receptors and ryanodine receptors.
