TAM is a muscular disease characterized by muscle pain, cramping, and weakness that has been recently linked to mutations in STIM1 and ORAI1. STIM1 and ORAI1 are the two main proteins mediating store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE), a mechanism activated by depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores (e.g., SR) that allows recovery of Ca2+ from the extracellular space during repetitive muscle activity. Here, ORAI1 is linked to muscular disease.
