N-type Ca2+ channels are modulated by a variety
of G-protein-coupled pathways. Some pathways produce a transient,
voltage-dependent (VD) inhibition of N channel function and involve
direct binding of G-protein subunits; others require the activation of
intermediate enzymes and produce a longer-lasting, voltage-independent
(VI) form of inhibition. The ratio of VD:VI inhibition differs
significantly among cell types, suggesting that the two forms of
inhibition play unique physiological roles in the nervous system. In
this study, we explored mechanisms capable of altering the balance of
VD and VI inhibition in chick dorsal root ganglion neurons. We report
that (1) VD:VI inhibition is critically dependent on the G 
concentration, with VI inhibition dominant at low G concentrations, and (2) syntaxin-1A (but not syntaxin-1B) shifts the
ratio in favor of VD inhibition by potentiating the VD effects of
G. Variations in expression levels of G-proteins and/or syntaxin provide the means to alter over a wide range both the extent and the
rate of Ca2+ influx through N channels.
