Regulation of ion channels by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and A-kinase anchoring proteins.
Subcellular targeting of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase is achieved, in part, through association with A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs). Recent evidence suggests that specific AKAPs direct the kinase to submembrane sites to facilitate phosphorylation and modulation of a variety of ion channels. A new membrane-anchored AKAP targets cAMP-dependent protein kinase to calcium channels and enha...
متن کاملRegulation of cloned cardiac L-type calcium channels by cGMP-dependent protein kinase.
We have studied the effect of 8-bromo-cyclic GMP (8-Br-cGMP) on cloned cardiac L-type calcium channel currents to determine the site and mechanism of action underlying the functional effect. Rabbit cardiac alpha(1C) subunit, in the presence or absence of beta(1) subunit (rabbit skeletal muscle) or beta(2) subunit (rat cardiac/brain), was expressed in Xenopus oocytes, and two-electrode voltage-c...
متن کاملThe Cardiac Ion Channels
Action potentials are mediated by transient changes in ion conductance across the cell surface membrane. These changes in conductance are primarily mediated by ion channels. Ion channels are membrane-embedded proteins that selectively pass specific ions upon opening. Some ion channels are constitutively open; however, most channels open following stimulation, such as through voltage changes, in...
متن کاملCytoskeleton regulation of ion channels.
C ardiac arrhythmia is one of the leading causes of sudden death in developed countries, and results from abnormal cardiac electric activity. Regular beat-to-beat cardiac excitability requires the coordinated activity of membrane-bound ionophoric proteins that are channels and transporters. Aberrant currents can result from either changes in the gating properties of ionophores or altered traffi...
