Alternative splicing switches potassium channel sensitivity to protein phosphorylation.
Alternative exon splicing and reversible protein phosphorylation of large conductance calcium-activated potassium (BK) channels represent fundamental control mechanisms for the regulation of cellular excitability. BK channels are encoded by a single gene that undergoes extensive, hormonally regulated exon splicing. In native tissues BK channels display considerable diversity and plasticity in t...
متن کاملRNA polymerase III drives alternative splicing of the potassium channel–interacting protein contributing to brain complexity and neurodegeneration
Alternative splicing generates protein isoforms that are conditionally or differentially expressed in specific tissues. The discovery of factors that control alternative splicing might clarify the molecular basis of biological and pathological processes. We found that IL1-α-dependent up-regulation of 38A, a small ribonucleic acid (RNA) polymerase III-transcribed RNA, drives the synthesis of an ...
متن کاملA protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation network regulates a plant potassium channel.
Potassium (K(+)) is an essential nutrient for plant growth and development. Plants often adapt to low K(+) conditions by increasing their K(+) uptake capability. Recent studies have led to the identification of a calcium signaling pathway that enables plants to act in this capacity. Calcium is linked to two calcineurin B-like calcium sensors (CBLs) and a target kinase (CBL-interacting protein k...
متن کاملProcessive phosphorylation of alternative splicing factor/splicing factor 2.
SR proteins, named for their multiple arginine/serine (RS) dipeptide repeats, are critical components of the spliceosome, influencing both constitutive and alternative splicing of pre-mRNA. SR protein function is regulated through phosphorylation of their RS domains by multiple kinases, including a family of evolutionarily conserved SR protein-specific kinases (SRPKs). The SRPK family of kinase...
متن کاملRole of Aberrant Alternative Splicing in Cancer
Alternative splicing can alter genome sequence and as a consequence, many genes change to oncogenes. This event can also affect protein function and diversity. The growing number of study elucidate the pathological influence of impaired alternative splicing events on numerous disease including cancer. Here, we would like to highlight the significant role of alternative splicing in cancer biolog...
