متن کاملPotassium ion channels: could they have evolved from viruses?
All potassium channels share a common architecture consisting of their pore module with two transmembrane domains and a conserved filter region that selects for K ions. The current view is that the plethora of complex K channels in eukaryotes evolved from a pore module precursor via gene fusions and gene duplications. Here we suggest that this pore precursor might have originated from viruses. ...
متن کاملO 13: Ion Channels in Autoimmune Neurodegeneration
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized by widespread inflammation, focal demyelination and a variable degree of axonal and neuronal loss. Ionic conductances regulate T cell activation as well as neuronal function and thus have been found to play a crucial role in MS pathogenesis. Since present therapeutical approaches are only parti...

have enlightened a large array of ion channels with highly divergent properties. These channels are present in various Plant ion channel activities are rapidly modulated in subcellular membranes, including the plasma membrane, response to several environmental and endogenous the tonoplast, plastidial and mitochondrial membranes, stimuli. Electrophysiological as well as pharmacoloand those of th...
متن کاملPlant 14-3-3 proteins assist ion channels and pumps.
Turgor pressure is a cellular parameter, important for a range of physiological processes in plants, like cell elongation, gas exchange and gravitropic/phototropic bending. Regulation of turgor pressure involves ion and water transport at the expense of metabolic energy (ATP). The primary pump in the plasma membrane (the H(+)-ATPase) is a key player in turgor regulation since it provides the dr...
