Modulation of calcium-activated potassium channels from rat brain by protein kinase A and phosphatase 2A.
By incorporating plasma membrane vesicles into planar lipid bilayers, we previously characterized a family of four types of Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels from rat brain (Reinhart et al., 1989). Two of these are "large-conductance" or "maxi"-K+ channels, which differ in their gating kinetics and toxin sensitivity and are henceforth referred to as "type 1" and "type 2" channels. Here we show that ...
متن کاملIdentification of rat epidermal profilaggrin phosphatase as a member of the protein phosphatase 2A family.
The aggregation of cellular intermediate filaments is an important step in the terminal differentiation of keratinocytes. It has been shown that epidermal filaggrin can cause intermediate filaments to aggregate in vitro and may also have the same function in vivo. Filaggrin is derived via dephosphorylation and proteolysis from a highly phosphorylated precursor, profilaggrin, which is found in t...
متن کاملProtein phosphatase 2A dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease
Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is a large family of enzymes that account for the majority of brain Ser/Thr phosphatase activity. While PP2A enzymes collectively modulate most cellular processes, sophisticated regulatory mechanisms are ultimately responsible for ensuring isoform-specific substrate specificity. Of particular interest to the Alzheimer's disease (AD) field, alterations in PP2A regul...
متن کاملNeuronal Functions of Protein Phosphatase 2A
Reversible protein phosphorylation is a common and important form of protein posttranslational modification which determines the proteins’ activities, substrate specificity and inhibitions or degradations, depending on the specific amino acid residue, or combination of residues, being targeted. While protein phosphorylations by kinases have been well studied, the importance of protein dephospho...
