-Subunit–Dependent Modulation of hSlo BK Current by Arachidonic Acid
Sun X, Zhou D, Zhang P, Moczydlowski EG, Haddad GG. -Subunit–dependent modulation of hSlo BK current by arachidonic acid. J Neurophysiol 97: 62–69, 2007. First published October 4, 2006; doi:10.1152/jn.00700.2006. In this study, we examined the effect of arachidonic acid (AA) on the BK -subunit with or without -subunits expressed in Xenopus oocytes. In excised patches, AA potentiated the hSlocu...
متن کاملInhibition of human cytomegalovirus DNA polymerase by C-terminal peptides from the UL54 subunit.
In common with other herpesviruses, the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) DNA polymerase contains a catalytic subunit (Pol or UL54) and an accessory protein (UL44) that is thought to increase the processivity of the enzyme. The observation that antisense inhibition of UL44 synthesis in HCMV-infected cells strongly inhibits viral DNA replication, together with the structural similarity predicted for ...
متن کاملBK potassium channel modulation by leucine-rich repeat-containing proteins.
Molecular diversity of ion channel structure and function underlies variability in electrical signaling in nerve, muscle, and nonexcitable cells. Regulation by variable auxiliary subunits is a major mechanism to generate tissue- or cell-specific diversity of ion channel function. Mammalian large-conductance, voltage- and calcium-activated potassium channels (BK, K(Ca)1.1) are ubiquitously expre...
متن کاملAlcohol modulation of BK channel gating depends on β subunit composition
In most mammalian tissues, Ca2+i/voltage-gated, large conductance K+ (BK) channels consist of channel-forming slo1 and auxiliary (β1-β4) subunits. When Ca2+i (3-20 µM) reaches the vicinity of BK channels and increases their activity at physiological voltages, β1- and β4-containing BK channels are, respectively, inhibited and potentiated by intoxicating levels of ethanol (50 mM). Previous studie...
متن کاملModulation of the human Kv1.5 channel by protein kinase C activation: role of the Kvbeta1.2 subunit.
Kv1.5 is the principal molecular component of I(Kur), an atrial-specific K(+) current in human myocytes that is suppressed by activation of protein kinase C (PKC). We examined the effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a direct activator of PKC, on Kv1.5 current. Although PMA had minimal effect when Kv1.5 was expressed alone, K(+) currents derived from coexpression of Kvbeta1.2 (but n...
