Ankyrin B promotes developmental spine regulation in the mouse prefrontal cortex. [PDF]

Cereb Cortex, 2023
Abstract Postnatal regulation of dendritic spine formation and refinement in cortical pyramidal neurons is critical for excitatory/inhibitory balance in neocortical networks. Recent studies have identified a selective spine pruning mechanism in the mouse prefrontal cortex (PFC) mediated by class 3 Semaphorins and the ...

Giant ankyrin-B mediates transduction of axon guidance and collateral branch pruning factor sema 3A [PDF]

eLife, 2021
Variants in the high confident autism spectrum disorder (ASD) gene ANK2 target both ubiquitously expressed 220 kDa ankyrin-B and neurospecific 440 kDa ankyrin-B (AnkB440) isoforms.

Structural interactions of ankyrin B with NrCAM and β2 spectrin. [PDF]

J Biol Chem
Abstract Ank2 is a high confidence autism spectrum disorder (ASD) gene encoding the spectrin-actin scaffold protein Ankyrin B (AnkB). The 220 kDal isoform of AnkB has multiple functions including developmental spine pruning through L1 family cell adhesion molecules (L1-CAMs) and class 3 Semaphorins ...

Impact of stress on cardiac phenotypes in mice harboring an ankyrin-B disease variant. [PDF]

J Biol Chem, 2023
Encoded by ANK2, ankyrin-B (AnkB) is a multifunctional adapter protein critical for the expression and targeting of key cardiac ion channels, transporters, cytoskeletal-associated proteins, and signaling molecules. Mice deficient for AnkB expression are neonatal lethal, and mice heterozygous for AnkB expression display cardiac structural and electrical

Ankyrin-B modulates mitochondrial fission in skeletal muscle and is required for optimal endurance exercise capacity [PDF]

Nature Communications
Mitochondrial dynamics enable cellular adaptation to fluctuations in energy demand, such as those imposed on skeletal muscle by exercise, metabolic disorders, or aging.

Ankyrin-B dysfunction predisposes to arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy and is amenable to therapy. [PDF]

J Clin Invest, 2019
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited arrhythmia syndrome characterized by severe structural and electrical cardiac phenotypes, including myocardial fibrofatty replacement and sudden cardiac death. Clinical management of ACM is largely palliative, owing to an absence of therapies that target its underlying pathophysiology, which stems ...

Ankyrin-B in lens architecture and biomechanics: Just not tethering but more. [PDF]

Bioarchitecture, 2016
The ankyrins are a family of well-characterized metazoan adaptor proteins that play a key role in linking various membrane-spanning proteins to the underlying spectrin-actin cytoskeleton; a mechanistic understanding of their role in tissue architecture and mechanics, however, remains elusive.

Autoinhibition of ankyrin-B/G membrane target bindings by intrinsically disordered segments from the tail regions [PDF]

eLife, 2017
Ankyrins together with their spectrin partners are the master organizers of micron-scale membrane domains in diverse tissues. The 24 ankyrin (ANK) repeats of ankyrins bind to numerous membrane proteins, linking them to spectrin-based cytoskeletons at ...

A Cantú syndrome mutation produces dual effects on KATP channels by disrupting ankyrin B regulation. [PDF]

J Gen Physiol, 2023
ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels composed of Kir6.x and sulfonylurea receptor (SURs) subunits couple cellular metabolism to electrical activity. Cantú syndrome (CS) is a rare disease caused by mutations in the genes encoding Kir6.1 (KCNJ8) and SUR2A (ABCC9) that produce KATP channel hyperactivity due to a reduced channel block by physiological ...

Ankyrin-B protein in heart failure: identification of a new component of metazoan cardioprotection. [PDF]

J Biol Chem, 2012
Ankyrins (ankyrin-R, -B, and -G) are adapter proteins linked with defects in metazoan physiology. Ankyrin-B (encoded by ANK2) loss-of-function mutations are directly associated with human cardiovascular phenotypes including sinus node disease, atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, and sudden cardiac death.
