Influenza A virus (IAV) matrix protein 2 (M2) is among the smallest bona fide, hence extensively studied, ion channel proteins. The M2 ion channel activity is not only essential for virus replication, but also involved in modulation of cellular homeostasis in a variety of ways. It is also the target for ion channel inhibitors, i.e., anti-influenza drugs. Thus far, several studies have been cond...
The large conductance calcium-activated potassium channel, or BK(Ca) channel, plays an important feedback role in a variety of physiological processes, including neurotransmitter release and smooth muscle contraction. Some reports have suggested that this channel forms a stable complex with regulators of its function, including several kinases and phosphatases. To further define such signaling ...
Direct G protein inhibition of voltage-dependent calcium channels is currently indirectly assessed by the gain of current produced by depolarizing prepulse potentials (PP). Indeed, PPs produce a channel opening- and time-dependent dissociation of G proteins from the channel that is responsible for the increase in Ca(2+) permeation. Parameters of G protein dissociation are essential to describe ...
Protein toxins from venomous organisms have provided remarkable insights into the structure and mechanism of ion channel proteins (Kalia et al., 2015). One classic example is the work of Rod MacKinnon, Chris Miller, and their colleagues on the mechanism by which high-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (or BK channels for Big K conductance) are inhibited by charybdotoxin (Anderson ...
The first model of G-protein-K(ACh) channel interaction was developed 14 years ago and then expanded to include both the receptor-G-protein cycle and G-protein-K(ACh) channel interaction. The G-protein-K(ACh) channel interaction used the Monod-Wyman-Changeux allosteric model with the idea that one K(ACh) channel is composed of four subunits, each of which binds one active G-protein subunit (G(b...
The chloroplastic outer envelope protein OEP75 with a molecular weight of 75 kDa probably forms the central pore of the protein import machinery of the outer chloroplastic membrane. Patch-clamp analysis shows that heterologously expressed, purified and reconstituted OEP75 constitutes a voltage-gated ion channel with a unit conductance of Lambda = 145pS. Activation of the OEP75 channel in vitro ...
In this paper we present a new approach to the processing of molecule dynamics. The method performs the tracking of a channel in a sequence of molecule snapshots which represent atom positions in the molecule in certain time intervals. The centerline of the tracked channel is refined using the Delaunay triangulation from the actual snapshot resulting in a new optimized centerline. This method a...
The transient outward current (ITO) is an important repolarizing component of the cardiac action potential. In native cardiac myocytes, ITO is modulated after activation of protein kinase C, although the molecular nature of this effect is not well understood. A channel recently cloned from human ventricular myocardium (KvL.4, HK1) produces a rapidly inactivating K' current, which has phenotypic...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Abnormal QT prolongation is the most prominent cardiac electrical disturbance in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). It is well known that the human ether-ago-go-related gene (hERG) controls the rapid delayed rectifier K+ current (IKr) in cardiac cells. The expression of the hERG channel is severely down-regulated in diabetic hearts, and this down-regulation is a critical cont...
In biaxially strained p-MOSFET with Si channel, formation of a parasitic parallel channel due to misalignment of energy bands degrades device performance by increasing off-state current. In this paper a new approach has been introduced to eliminate this parasitic channel by increasing the dopant concentration of virtual substrate up to . Using simulation the impact of this method on the parasit...
