Voltage-dependent calcium channels are crucial targets for a wide range of clinically active small organic pharmacological agents. These agents fall into several distinct classes of blockers, each associated with a unique site on the calcium channel ฮฑ 1 subunit. In addition, a number of peptide toxi

## Calcium ions act as modulators of many fundamental processes in eukaryotic cells. Although these processes apparently involve initial interactions between calcium ions and cell membranes, the identity of the putative membrane Caz+binding proteins has until recently been obscure. This article de
A thermodynamic approach is proposed to quantitatively analyze the binding isotherms of peptides to model membranes as a function of one adjustable parameter, the actual peptide charge in solution z(p)+. The main features of this approach are a theoretical expression for the partition coefficient ca
