Primary structure of cAMP-gated channel from bovine olfactory epithelium.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The complete amino-acid sequence of the bovine olfactory epithelium adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-gated channel has been determined by cloning and sequencing its cDNA. It exhibits a high degree of sequence homology with the cGMP-gated channel of rod photoreceptors, suggesting that cyclic nucleotide-gated channels fall into a new family of genetically related proteins.

A second subunit of the olfactory cyclic nucleotide-gated channel confers high sensitivity to cAMP.
Sensory transduction in olfactory neurons is mediated by intracellular cAMP, which directly gates a nonselective cation channel. A cDNA encoding a cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) ion channel subunit (rOCNC1) has been cloned previously from rat olfactory epithelium. However, differences between the functional properties of rOCNC1 and the native olfactory CNG channel suggest that the native channel...

structures, that lies beneath the rostral end of the nasal cavity, is thought to be the primary site for the detection of pheromones in mammals (Halpern, 1987; Wysocki & Meredith, 1987). Sensory transduction in the VNO is poorly understood, but is likely to be distinct from sensory transduction in the olfactory epithelium (Liman, 1996). In the olfactory epithelium, G protein-coupled receptors a...
متن کاملOdors detected by mice deficient in cyclic nucleotide-gated channel subunit A2 stimulate the main olfactory system.
It is believed that odor transduction in the mammalian main olfactory system only involves the cAMP-signaling pathway. Here, we report on odor responsiveness in mice with a disrupted cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channel subunit A2. Several odorants, including putative pheromones, can be detected and discriminated by these mice behaviorally. These odors elicit responses in the olfactory epithel...
متن کاملAnother member of the cyclic nucleotide-gated channel family, expressed in testis, kidney, and heart.
Cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channels are essential in visual and olfactory signal transduction. An additional member of the cGMP-gated channel family, termed CNG-3, has been cloned from bovine kidney. Its deduced amino acid sequence is 60% and 62% identical with the CNG-channel proteins from bovine rod outer segment and bovine olfactory epithelium, respectively. Northern analysis and sequenc...
متن کاملAn isoform of the rod photoreceptor cyclic nucleotide-gated channel beta subunit expressed in olfactory neurons.
Sensory transduction in olfactory neurons involves the activation of a cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channel by cAMP. Previous studies identified a CNG channel alpha subunit (CNG2) and a beta subunit (CNG5), which when heterologously expressed form a channel with properties similar but not identical to those of native olfactory neurons. We have cloned a new type of CNG channel beta subunit (CNG...
