Brief description Ageing, injury, drugs or genetic defects cause muscle weakness, prevent exercise, compromise life style and contribute to poor health and osteoporosis. In order to move signals travel from our brain to muscles, where one calcium ion channel detects the signal and tells a second calcium channel to open and release calcium ions to initiate contraction. The project will pave the way for developing drugs to help with muscle disorders by trageting the site of interaction between the channels.
