The Ankyrin-B C-terminal Domain Determines Activity of Ankyrin-B/G Chimeras in Rescue of Abnormal Inositol 1,4,5-Trisphosphate and Ryanodine Receptor Distribution in Ankyrin-B (−/−) Neonatal Cardiomyocytes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
Ankyrins are a closely related family of membrane adaptor proteins that are believed to participate in targeting diverse membrane proteins to specialized domains in the plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum. This study addresses the question of how individual ankyrin isoforms achieve functional specificity when co-expressed in the same cell ...

Ankyrin-B syndrome: enhanced cardiac function balanced by risk of cardiac death and premature senescence. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
Here we report the unexpected finding that specific human ANK2 variants represent a new example of balanced human variants. The prevalence of certain ANK2 (encodes ankyrin-B) variants range from 2 percent of European individuals to 8 percent in ...

Ankyrin-B coordinates the Na/K ATPase, Na/Ca exchanger, and InsP3 receptor in a cardiac T-tubule/SR microdomain.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2005
We report identification of an ankyrin-B-based macromolecular complex of Na/K ATPase (alpha 1 and alpha 2 isoforms), Na/Ca exchanger 1, and InsP3 receptor that is localized in cardiomyocyte T-tubules in discrete microdomains distinct from classic ...

The L1 cell adhesion molecule constrains dendritic spine density in pyramidal neurons of the mouse cerebral cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2023
A novel function for the L1 cell adhesion molecule, which binds the actin adaptor protein Ankyrin was identified in constraining dendritic spine density on pyramidal neurons in the mouse neocortex.

Isoforms of Spectrin and Ankyrin Reflect the Functional Topography of the Mouse Kidney. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The kidney displays specialized regions devoted to filtration, selective reabsorption, and electrolyte and metabolite trafficking. The polarized membrane pumps, channels, and transporters responsible for these functions have been exhaustively studied ...

Early developmental deletion of forebrain Ank2 causes seizure-related phenotypes by reshaping the synaptic proteome

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Rare genetic variants in ANK2, which encodes ankyrin-B, are associated with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs); however, their pathogenesis is poorly understood.

A cardiac arrhythmia syndrome caused by loss of ankyrin-B function [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
220-kDa ankyrin-B is required for coordinated assembly of Na/Ca exchanger, Na/K ATPase, and inositol trisphosphate (Ins P 3 ) receptor at transverse-tubule/sarcoplasmic reticulum sites in cardiomyocytes.

Ankyrin-B Targets β2-Spectrin to an Intracellular Compartment in Neonatal Cardiomyocytes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
Ankyrin-B is a spectrin-binding protein that is required for localization of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor and ryanodine receptor in neonatal cardiomyocytes. This work addresses the interaction between ankyrin-B and beta(2)-spectrin in these cells. Ankyrin-B and beta(2)-spectrin are colocalized in an intracellular striated compartment overlying

Regulation of the ankyrin-B-based targeting pathway following myocardial infarction [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2008
Ion channel reorganization is a critical step in the pro-arrhythmogenic remodelling process that occurs in heart disease. Ankyrin-B (AnkB) is required for targeting and stabilizing ion channels, exchangers, and pumps. Despite a wealth of knowledge implicating the importance of AnkB in human cardiovascular physiology, nothing is known regarding the role

Ankyrins and Spectrins in Cardiovascular Biology and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Ankyrins are adaptor proteins critical for the expression and targeting of cardiac membrane proteins, signaling molecules, and cytoskeletal elements.
