A protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation network regulates a plant potassium channel.
Potassium (K(+)) is an essential nutrient for plant growth and development. Plants often adapt to low K(+) conditions by increasing their K(+) uptake capability. Recent studies have led to the identification of a calcium signaling pathway that enables plants to act in this capacity. Calcium is linked to two calcineurin B-like calcium sensors (CBLs) and a target kinase (CBL-interacting protein k...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of the Cav3.2 T-type calcium channel directly regulates its gating properties.
Phosphorylation is a major mechanism regulating the activity of ion channels that remains poorly understood with respect to T-type calcium channels (Cav3). These channels are low voltage-activated calcium channels that play a key role in cellular excitability and various physiological functions. Their dysfunction has been linked to several neurological disorders, including absence epilepsy and ...
متن کاملControl of CFTR channel gating by phosphorylation and nucleotide hydrolysis.
Control of CTFR Channel Gating by Phosphorylation and Nucleotide Hydrolysis. Physiol. Rev. 79, Suppl.: S77-S107, 1999. - The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl- channel is the protein product of the gene defective in cystic fibrosis, the most common lethal genetic disease among Caucasians. Unlike any other known ion channel, CFTR belongs to the ATP-binding cassette su...
متن کاملATP-independent CFTR channel gating and allosteric modulation by phosphorylation.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel, an ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter. CFTR gating is linked to ATP binding and dimerization of its two nucleotide binding domains (NBDs). Channel activation also requires phosphorylation of the R domain by poorly understood mechanisms. Unlike conventional ligand-gated chan...
متن کاملChannel Gating
Large conductance, voltageand Ca 2 -activated K (BK Ca ) channels regulate blood vessel tone, synaptic transmission, and hearing owing to dual activation by membrane depolarization and intracellular Ca 2 . Similar to an archeon Ca 2 -activated K channel, MthK, each of four subunits of BK Ca may contain two cytosolic RCK domains and eight of which may form a gating ring. The structure of the Mth...
