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

Ankyrin‐B is a critical determinant of vasomotor function

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2010
Ankyrin B (AnkB) plays an important role in normal cardiac and neuronal function by linking membrane proteins to the cytoskeleton. Little is known, however, about the role of AnkB in the vasculature. Thus, we studied vasomotor function in aortas from wild‐type mice (AnkB

The Role of BANK1 in B Cell Signaling and Disease

open access: yesCells, 2021
The B cell scaffold protein with ankyrin repeats (BANK1) is expressed primarily in B cells and with multiple but discrete roles in B cell signaling, including B cell receptor signaling, CD40-related signaling, and Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling.

Ankyrin-B metabolic syndrome combines age-dependent adiposity with pancreatic β cell insufficiency. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Invest, 2015
Rare functional variants of ankyrin-B have been implicated in human disease, including hereditary cardiac arrhythmia and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Here, we developed murine models to evaluate the metabolic consequences of these alterations in vivo ...

Analysis of an ankyrin-like region in Epstein Barr Virus encoded (EBV) BZLF-1 (ZEBRA) protein: implications for interactions with NF-κB and p53

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2011
Background The carboxyl terminal of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) ZEBRA protein (also termed BZLF-1 encoded replication protein Zta or ZEBRA) binds to both NF-κB and p53. The authors have previously suggested that this interaction results from an ankyrin-like

Alternative splicing: A key mechanism for ankyrin-B functional diversity? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 2008
Ankyrin is a family of adaptor proteins encoded by three genes, ANK1, ANK2 and ANK3 (also known as ankyrin-R, ankyrin-B and ankyrin-G, respectively) [1]. The ankyrins serve to link specific membrane proteins to the cellular cytoskeleton and help membrane proteins remain stably positioned in the correct location within the cell. The ankyrins contain 24 “

β-III spectrin underpins ankyrin R function in Purkinje cell dendritic trees:Protein complex critical for sodium channel activity is impaired by SCA5-associated mutations

open access: yes, 2014
Beta III spectrin is present throughout the elaborate dendritic tree of cerebellar Purkinje cells and is required for normal neuronal morphology and cell survival.

Accumulation of muscle ankyrin repeat protein transcript reveals local activation of primary myotube endcompartments during muscle morphogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The characteristic shapes and positions of each individual body muscle are established during the process of muscle morphogenesis in response to patterning information from the surrounding mesenchyme. Throughout muscle morphogenesis, primary myotubes are
