A Cytoplasmic Domain Mutation in ClC-Kb Affects Long-Distance Communication Across the Membrane
BACKGROUND ClC-Kb and ClC-Ka are homologous chloride channels that facilitate chloride homeostasis in the kidney and inner ear. Disruption of ClC-Kb leads to Bartter's Syndrome, a kidney disease. A point mutation in ClC-Kb, R538P, linked to Bartter's Syndrome and located in the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain was hypothesized to alter electrophysiological properties due to its proximity to an imp...
متن کاملActivating mutation of the renal epithelial chloride channel ClC-Kb predisposing to hypertension.
The chloride channel ClC-Kb is expressed in the basolateral cell membrane of the distal nephron and participates in renal NaCl reabsorption. Loss-of-function mutations of ClC-Kb lead to classic Bartter syndrome, a rare salt-wasting disorder. Recently, we identified the ClC-Kb(T481S) polymorphism, which confers a strong gain-of-function effect on the ClC-Kb chloride channel. The present study ha...
متن کاملNew perspective of ClC-Kb/2 Cl- channel physiology in the distal renal tubule.
Since its identification as the underlying molecular cause of Bartter's syndrome type 3, ClC-Kb (ClC-K2 in rodents, henceforth it will be referred as ClC-Kb/2) is proposed to play an important role in systemic electrolyte balance and blood pressure regulation by controlling basolateral Cl(-) exit in the distal renal tubular segments from the cortical thick ascending limb to the outer medullary ...
متن کاملQUICKSELECT Revisited
We give an overview of the running time analysis of the random divide-and-conquer algorithm FIND or QUICKSELECT. The results concern moments, distribution of FIND’s running time, the limiting distribution, a stochastic bound and the key: a stochastic fixed point equation.
متن کاملPatterns of hypnotic response, revisited.
It has long been speculated that there are discrete patterns of responsiveness to hypnotic suggestions, perhaps paralleling the factor structure of hypnotizability. An earlier study by Brenneman and Kihlstrom (1986), employing cluster analysis, found evidence for 12 such profiles. A new study by Terhune (2015), employing latent profile analysis, found evidence for three such patterns among high...
