Molecular mechanism for depolarization-induced modulation of Kv channel closure

Voltage-dependent potassium (Kv) channels provide the repolarizing power that shapes the action potential duration and helps control the firing frequency of neurons. The K(+) permeation through the channel pore is controlled by an intracellularly located bundle-crossing (BC) gate that communicates with the voltage-sensing domains (VSDs). During prolonged membrane depolarizations, most Kv channe...

Sour taste finds closure in a potassium channel.

Taste cells in taste buds of the mammalian tongue and oral cavity can detect five basic modalities: sweet, bitter, umami, salty, and sour. Each taste cell expresses distinct molecular sensors, such as G protein-coupled receptors or ion channels, which detect tastants (i.e., chemical stimuli that elicit taste sensation) and initiate an intracellular response that culminates in membrane depolariz...

Stoichiometry of sulfonylurea-induced ATP-sensitive potassium channel closure.

Hypoglycemic sulfonylureas (e.g., glibenclamide, glipizide, and tolbutamide) exert their stimulatory effect on excitatory cells by closure of ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels. These channels are heteromultimers composed with a 4:4 stoichiometry of an inwardly rectifying K+ channel (KIR) subunit 6.x plus a sulfonylurea receptor (SUR). SUR1/KIR6.2 reconstitutes the neuronal/pancreatic beta...

Amantadine inhibits NMDA receptors by accelerating channel closure during channel block.

The channel of NMDA receptors is blocked by a wide variety of drugs. NMDA receptor channel blockers include drugs of abuse that induce psychotic behavior, such as phencyclidine, and drugs with wide therapeutic utility, such as amantadine and memantine. We describe here the molecular mechanism of amantadine inhibition. In contrast to most other described channel-blocking molecules, amantadine ca...
