Shear stress elevates endothelial cGMP. Role of a potassium channel and G protein coupling.

BACKGROUND The endothelium acts as the sensor of shear stress and as the mediator of flow-induced changes in vessel tone and structure. The purpose of this study was to delineate the signal transduction pathway of flow-induced release of endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF). METHODS AND RESULTS We used a shear stress apparatus (a modified cone-plate viscometer) to expose cultured endoth...

A novel chimeric recombinant protein PDHB-P80 of Mycoplasma agalactiae as a potential diagnostic tool

The aim of this study was to construct, expression of a novel recombinant chimeric protein consisting of Pyruvate dehydrogenase beta subunit (PDHB) and high antigenic region of integral membrane lipoprotein P80 of Mycoplasma agalactiae as a potential diagnostic tool. The full-length sequence of pdhb and a portion of antigenic regions of P80 were selected and analyzed by CLC ma...

Functional properties of a truncated recombinant GIRK5 potassium channel.

Xenopus laevis oocytes codify a G-protein-activated inward rectifier potassium channel (GIRK5 or Kir3.5). Coinjection of other GIRKs, the muscarinic m2 receptor, or Gbetagamma protein cRNAs is required to observe functional GIRKx-GIRK5 heteromultimers in oocytes. Studies with GIRK2 isoforms have shown that the size of the amino or carboxyl terminus plays a crucial role on giving functional K(+)...

Transmembrane allosteric coupling of the gates in a potassium channel.

It has been hypothesized that transmembrane allostery is the basis for inactivation of the potassium channel KcsA: opening the intracellular gate is spontaneously followed by ion expulsion at the extracellular selectivity filter. This suggests a corollary: following ion expulsion at neutral pH, a spontaneous global conformation change of the transmembrane helices, similar to the motion involved...

A Novel Potassium Channel in Photosynthetic Cyanobacteria

Elucidation of the structure-function relationship of a small number of prokaryotic ion channels characterized so far greatly contributed to our knowledge on basic mechanisms of ion conduction. We identified a new potassium channel (SynK) in the genome of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC6803, a photosynthetic model organism. SynK, when expressed in a K(+)-uptake-system deficient E. coli...
