Ion channel modulation has recently become an attractive target for experimental and clinical research in a never ending quest for drug development. Following the decades of domination of calcium channel blockers, currently the focus is on potassium channels and their modulators; this is one of the most rapidly developing field of research. Because potassium channels have an important role in m...
We describe here the cloning of the Aplysia K+ channel AK01a.AK01a codes for a protein of 515 amino acids, shows considerable homology to other cloned potassium channels, and can be classified as a member of the ShakerK+ channel family. Expression of the AK01a channel in Xenopus oocytes produces a rapidly inactivating outward potassium current (IAK01a) resembling the A-type currents of Drosophi...
Mitochondrial potassium channels, such as ATP-regulated or large conductance Ca2+ -activated and voltage gated channels were implicated in cytoprotective phenomenon in different tissues. Basic effects of these channels activity include changes in mitochondrial matrix volume, mitochondrial respiration and membrane potential, and generation of reactive oxygen species. In this paper, we describe t...
We performed experiments using Aplysia neurons to identify the mechanism underlying the changes in the firing patterns in response to temperature changes. When the temperature was gradually increased from 11℃ to 31℃ the firing patterns changed sequentially from the silent state to beating, doublets, beating-chaos, bursting-chaos, square-wave bursting, and bursting-oscillation patterns. When the...
White matter is a compact structure consisting primarily of neuronal axons and glial cells. As in other parts of the nervous system, the function of glial cells in white matter is poorly understood. We have explored the electrophysiological properties of two types of glial cells found predominantly in white matter: type 2 astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. Whole-cells and single-channel patch-cla...
C-type inactivation in potassium channels helps fine-tune long-term channel activity through conformational changes at the selectivity filter. Here, through the use of cross-linked constitutively open constructs, we determined the structures of KcsA's mutants that stabilize the selectivity filter in its conductive (E71A, at 2.25 Å) and deep C-type inactivated (Y82A at 2.4 Å) conformations. Thes...
