Cytosolic and intra-organellar Ca2+ oscillations: mechanisms and function
Spatial Ca2+ profiling: decrypting the universal cytosolic Ca2+ oscillation
TLDR
Spatial profiling increases the transduction power of the universal oscillatory cytosolic Ca2+ signal.
Frequency decoding of calcium oscillations.
Coding and decoding of oscillatory Ca2+ signals.
Multifaceted plasma membrane Ca(2+) pumps: From structure to intracellular Ca(2+) handling and cancer.
Signaling through Ca2+ Microdomains from Store-Operated CRAC Channels.
TLDR
This review describes how Ca2+ microdomains generated by store-operated calcium channels, a widespread and conservedCa2+ entry pathway, stimulate different signaling pathways, and how the spatial extent of a Ca2- microdomain can be influenced by Ca2 + ATPase pumps are influenced.
A Dynamic Model of Cytosolic Calcium Concentration Oscillations in Mast Cells
TLDR
The model provides a comprehensive mechanism for predicting cytosolic Ca2+ concentration oscillations in mast cells, and a theoretical basis for calcium oscillations observed in Mast cells, so as to better understand the regulation mechanism of calcium signaling inmast cells.
Spatially compartmentalized phase regulation of a Ca2+-cAMP-PKA oscillatory circuit
Signaling networks are spatiotemporally organized in order to sense diverse inputs, process information, and carry out specific cellular tasks. In pancreatic β cells, Ca2+, cyclic adenosine…
STIM proteins, Orai1, and gene expression
TLDR
The size, kinetics and spatial profile of a cytoplasmic Ca2+ signal are all important in determining which Ca2-dependent response will be activated, when and for how long.
Calmodulin-controlled Spatial Decoding of Oscillatory Ca 2 + Signals by 1 Calcineurin 2 3 4
TLDR
It is shown that Ca oscillations induce distinct temporal patterns of calcineurin activity in the cytosol and plasma membrane versus at the ER and mitochondria in insulin-secreting MIN6 β-cells, indicating that CaM plays an active role in shaping both the spatial and temporal aspects of calcinesurin signaling.

Store-operated calcium channels.
TLDR
The key electrophysiological features of I(CRAC) and other store-operated Ca(2+) currents and how they are regulated are described, and recent advances that have shed insight into the molecular mechanisms involved in this ubiquitous and vital Ca( 2+) entry pathway are considered.
Ca2+ microdomains near plasma membrane Ca2+ channels: impact on cell function

TLDR
Basic features of Ca2+ microdomains are delineated and how these highly local signals are used by Ca2 +‐permeable channels to drive cellular responses are described.
Sensitivity of CaM kinase II to the frequency of Ca2+ oscillations.
TLDR
Rapid superfusion of immobilized Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II in vitro showed that the enzyme can decode the frequency ofCa2+ spikes into distinct amounts of kinase activity, suggesting its pivotal role in activity-dependent forms of synaptic plasticity.
Mitochondrial control of calcium-channel gating: a mechanism for sustained signaling and transcriptional activation in T lymphocytes.
TLDR
A role for mitochondria is demonstrated in controlling Ca(2+) channel activity and signal transmission from the plasma membrane to the nucleus and inhibiting nuclear translocation of the transcription factor NFAT in parallel with CRAC channel activity.
Spatial and temporal aspects of cellular calcium signaling
TLDR
The mechanisms and physi‐ological significance of this behavior in nonexcitable cells are discussed, in which the primary mechanism of Ca2+ mobilization is through (l,4,5)IP3‐dependent Ca 2+ release from intracellular stores.
Calcium oscillations increase the efficiency and specificity of gene expression
TLDR
It is reported that oscillations reduce the effective Ca2+ threshold for activating transcription factors, thereby increasing signal detection at low levels of stimulation and providing direct evidence that [Ca2+]i oscillations increase both the efficacy and the information content of Ca2+, leading to gene expression and cell differentiation.
