Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a mechanism regulated by the filling state of the intracellular Ca2+ stores that requires the participation of the Ca2+ sensor STIM1, which communicates the Ca2+ content of the stores to the plasma membrane Ca2+-permeable channels. We have recently reported that Orai1 mediates the communication between STIM1 and the Ca2+ channel hTRPC1. This event is important to confer hTRPC1 store depletion sensitivity, thus supporting the functional role of the STIM1-Orai1-hTRPC1 complex in the activation of SOCE. Here we have explored the relevance of lipid rafts in the formation of the STIM1-Orai1-hTRPC1 complex and the activation of SOCE. Disturbance of lipid raft domains, using methyl-beta-cyclodextrin, reduces the interaction between endogenously expressed Orai1 and both STIM1 and hTRPC1 upon depletion of the intracellular Ca2+ stores and attenuates thapsigargin-evoked Ca2+ entry. These findings suggest that TRPC1, Orai1 and STIM1 form a heteromultimer associated with lipid raft domains and regulated by the intracellular Ca2+ stores.
