Poxviral Ankyrin Proteins [PDF]
Multiple repeats of the ankyrin motif (ANK) are ubiquitous throughout the kingdoms of life but are absent from most viruses. The main exception to this is the poxvirus family, and specifically the chordopoxviruses, with ANK repeat proteins present in all

The human ankyrin 1 promoter insulator sustains gene expression in a β-globin lentiviral vector in hematopoietic stem cells [PDF]
Lentiviral vectors designed for the treatment of the hemoglobinopathies require the inclusion of regulatory and strong enhancer elements to achieve sufficient expression of the β-globin transgene. Despite the inclusion of these elements, the efficacy of

Ankyrin‐2 genetic variants: A case of Ankyrin‐B syndrome [PDF]
Inherited cardiac arrhythmias (ICA) have become one of the leading causes of sudden cardiac death in people under 40 years old. Variants in the ankyrin‐B or ankyrin‐2 genes will result in several cardiac arrhythmias ranging from sinus node dysfunction to

Ankyrin B and Ankyrin B variants differentially modulate intracellular and surface Cav2.1 levels [PDF]
Ankyrin B (AnkB) is an adaptor and scaffold for motor proteins and various ion channels that is ubiquitously expressed, including in the brain. AnkB has been associated with neurological disorders such as epilepsy and autism spectrum disorder, but ...

This review is focused on ankyrin which is a protein linker between the integral membrane proteins and spectrin‐based cytoskeleton. Structure and distribution of different ankyrin isoforms that are products of alternative‐spliced genes are described. Interaction of ankyrins with various membranes is considered.

Neuronal ankyrins cluster and link membrane proteins to the actin and spectrin-based cytoskeleton. Among the three vertebrate ankyrins, little is known about neuronal Ankyrin-R (AnkR). We report AnkR is highly enriched in Pv+ fast-spiking interneurons in

LQT4 Gene: The "Missing" Ankyrin [PDF]
Mutations in ion channels have been implicated in the formation of long QT syndrome (LQTS). However, Mohler et al. have recently uncovered a role for ankyrin-B, a non-ion channel protein, in type IV LQTS. Calcium signalling is altered, and the functions of several channels and pumps that normally interact with wild-type ankyrin-B are impaired in the ...

Among the several tetratricopeptide (TPR) repeat-containing proteins encoded by the Arabidopsis thaliana genome, AtTPR10 exhibits an atypical structure with three TPR domain repeats at the C-terminus in addition to seven ankyrin (ANK) domain repeats at ...
