Cytoplasmic Domains and Voltage-Dependent Potassium Channel Gating
The basic architecture of the voltage-dependent K(+) channels (Kv channels) corresponds to a transmembrane protein core in which the permeation pore, the voltage-sensing components and the gating machinery (cytoplasmic facing gate and sensor-gate coupler) reside. Usually, large protein tails are attached to this core, hanging toward the inside of the cell. These cytoplasmic regions are essentia...
متن کاملpH-dependent FcRn binding and IgG clearance
The Fc domain of IgG has been the target of multiple mutational studies aimed at altering the pH-dependent IgG/FcRn interaction to modulate IgG pharmacokinetics. These studies have yielded antibody variants with disparate pharmacokinetic characteristics, ranging from extended in vivo half-life to those exhibiting extremely rapid clearance. To better understand pH-dependent binding parameters th...
متن کاملRyanodine receptor regulation by intramolecular interaction between cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains.
Ryanodine receptors (RyR) function as Ca(2+) channels that regulate Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores to control a diverse array of cellular processes. The massive cytoplasmic domain of RyR is believed to be responsible for regulating channel function. We investigated interaction between the transmembrane Ca(2+)-releasing pore and a panel of cytoplasmic domains of the human cardiac RyR i...
متن کاملBinding specificity of Toll-like receptor cytoplasmic domains.
MyD88 participates in signal transduction by binding to the cytoplasmic Toll/IL-1 receptor (TIR) domains of activated Toll-like receptors (TLR). Yeast two-hybrid experiments reveal that the TIR domains of human TLR differ in their ability to associate with MyD88: The TIR of TLR2 binds to MyD88 but the TIR of the closely related TLR1, 6, or 10 do not. Using chimeric TIR domains, we define the cr...
متن کاملThe alkaline pH dependence of chymotrypsin reactions: postulation of a pH-dependent intramolecular competitive inhibition.
The two groups observed in k2/K, may both belong to k2 (acylation) or to K* (binding), or one may belong to k2 and the other to K,. Several studies2 indicate that the pH of 6.8 is part of the k2 step. This finding is consistent with the presence of pK 7.0 in the k3 step, since one would expect that the same catalytic group should be operative in both steps, if k2 and k3 are the microscopic reve...
