Regulation of endocytic recycling of KCNQ1/KCNE1 potassium channels.
Stress-dependent regulation of cardiac action potential duration is mediated by the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. It is accompanied by an increased magnitude of the slow outward potassium ion current, I(Ks). KCNQ1 and KCNE1 subunits coassemble to form the I(Ks) channel. Mutations in either subunit cause long QT syndrome, an inherited cardiac arrhythmia ...
متن کاملN Terminus Is Key to the Dominant Negative Suppression of CaV2 Calcium Channels
Expression of the calcium channels Ca(V)2.1 and Ca(V)2.2 is markedly suppressed by co-expression with truncated constructs containing Domain I. This is the basis for the phenomenon of dominant negative suppression observed for many of the episodic ataxia type 2 mutations in Ca(V)2.1 that predict truncated channels. The process of dominant negative suppression has been shown previously to stem f...
متن کاملDominant-negative subunits reveal potassium channel families that contribute to M-like potassium currents.
M-currents are K+ currents generated by members of the KCNQ family of K+ channels (Wang et al., 1998). However, in some cells, M-like currents may be contaminated by members of other K+ channel gene families, such as the erg family (Meves et al., 1999; Selyanko et al., 1999). In the present experiments, we have used the acute expression of pore-defective mutants of KCNQ3 (DN-KCNQ3) and Merg1a (...
متن کاملSuppression of wild-type rhodopsin maturation by mutants linked to autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa.
Autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (ADRP) has been linked to mutations in the gene encoding rhodopsin. Most RP-linked rhodopsin mutants are unable to fold correctly in the endoplasmic reticulum, are degraded by the ubiquitin proteasome system, and are highly prone to forming detergent-insoluble high molecular weight aggregates. Here we have reported that coexpression of folding-deficient, ...
متن کاملThe KCNQ1 potassium channel: from gene to physiological function.
The voltage-gated KCNQ1 (KvLQT1, Kv7.1) potassium channel plays a crucial role in shaping the cardiac action potential as well as in controlling the water and salt homeostasis in several epithelial tissues. KCNQ1 channels in these tissues are tightly regulated by auxiliary proteins and accessory factors, capable of modulating the properties of the channel complexes. This paper reviews the curre...
