Cyclic Nucleotide–Gated Channels
In voltage- and cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels, the amino-acid loop that connects the S5 and S6 transmembrane domains, is a major component of the channel pore. It determines ion selectivity and participates in gating. In the alpha subunit of cyclic nucleotide-gated channels from bovine rod, the pore loop is formed by the residues R345-S371, here called R1-S27. These 24 residues were muta...
متن کاملCyclic Nucleotide–gated Channels
abs t rac t Middendorf et al. (Middendorf, T.R., R.W. Aldrich, and D.A. Baylor. 2000. J. Gen. Physiol. 116:227– 252) showed that ultraviolet light decreases the current through cloned cyclic nucleotide–gated channels from bovine retina activated by high concentrations of cGMP. Here we probe the mechanism of the current reduction. The channels’ open probability before irradiation, P o (0), deter...
متن کاملCyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels.
Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channels are nonselective cation channels first identified in retinal photoreceptors and olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs). They are opened by the direct binding of cyclic nucleotides, cAMP and cGMP. Although their activity shows very little voltage dependence, CNG channels belong to the superfamily of voltage-gated ion channels. Like their cousins the voltage-gated...
متن کاملEvolutionary and Structural Perspectives of Plant Cyclic Nucleotide-Gated Cation Channels
Ligand-gated cation channels are a frequent component of signaling cascades in eukaryotes. Eukaryotes contain numerous diverse gene families encoding ion channels, some of which are shared and some of which are unique to particular kingdoms. Among the many different types are cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNGCs). CNGCs are cation channels with varying degrees of ion conduction selectivity. ...
متن کاملCyclic nucleotide-gated cation channels mediate sodium and calcium influx in rat colon.
We found mRNA for the three isoforms of the cyclic nucleotide-gated nonselective cation channel expressed in the mucosal layer of the rat intestine from the duodenum to the colon and in intestinal epithelial cell lines in culture. Because these channels are permeable to sodium and calcium and are stimulated by cGMP or cAMP, we measured 8-bromo-cGMP-stimulated sodium-mediated short-circuit curre...
