Mechanism of anionic conduction across ClC.
ClC chloride channels are voltage-gated transmembrane proteins that have been associated with a wide range of regulatory roles in vertebrates. To accomplish their function, they allow small inorganic anions to efficiently pass through, while blocking the passage of all other particles. Understanding the conduction mechanism of ClC has been the subject of many experimental investigations, but un...
متن کاملHuman ClCa1 modulates anionic conduction of calcium-dependent chloride currents
Proteins of the CLCA gene family including the human ClCa1 (hClCa1) have been suggested to constitute a new family of chloride channels mediating Ca(2+)-dependent Cl- currents. The present study examines the relationship between the hClCa1 protein and Ca(2+)-dependent Cl- currents using heterologous expression of hClCa1 in HEK293 and NCIH522 cell lines and whole cell recordings. By contrast to ...
متن کاملCFTR: mechanism of anion conduction.
CFTR: Mechanism of Anion Conduction. Physiol. Rev. 79, Suppl.: S47-S75, 1999. - The purpose of this review is to collect together the results of recent investigations of anion conductance by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator along with some of the basic background that is a prerequisite for developing some physical picture of the conduction process. The review begins with ...
متن کاملThe mechanism of atrioventricular conduction.
Potentials recorded at various sites in the atrioventricular (A-V) conduction system indicate that conduction is continuously electrical in nature and involves no synapse-like (i.e., chemical) conduction. The region between atrium and atrioventricular node has the slowest conduction velocity (.05 M./see.) and lowest safety factor. Conduction through the A-V node is at about .12 M./sec. Results ...
متن کاملThe Mechanism of Fast-Gate Opening in ClC-0
ClC-0 is a chloride channel whose gating is sensitive to both voltage and chloride. Based on analysis of gating kinetics using single-channel recordings, a five-state model was proposed to describe the dependence of ClC-0 fast-gate opening on voltage and external chloride (Chen, T.-Y., and C. Miller. 1996. J. Gen. Physiol. 108:237-250). We aimed to use this five-state model as a starting point ...
