Increased complexity of Tmem16a/Anoctamin 1 transcript alternative splicing [PDF]
BMC Molecular Biology, 2011 Abstract Background TMEM16A (Anoctamin 1; ANO1) is an eight transmembrane protein that functions as a calcium-activated chloride channel. TMEM16A in human exhibits alternatively spliced exons (6b, 13 and 15), which confer important roles in the regulation of channel function. Mouse Tmem16a is reported to consist of 25

Disulfide Bond Connectivity and Oligomeric State of Anoctamin-1 [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2013 TMEM16A(a)/anoctamin-1 (Ano1) has been identified as a Ca-activated chloride channel. Using blue native PAGE, SDS-PAGE and chemical cross-linking, we have shown that the mouse Ano1 channel (mAno1) shares an obligate homodimeric architecture with the hCLC-1 channel (Fallah et al. Molecular & Cellular Proteomics 10.1074/mcp. M110.004697, 2011).

MicroRNA-9 downregulates the ANO1 chloride channel and contributes to cystic fibrosis lung pathology
Nature Communications, 2017 Downregulation of the anoctamin 1 calcium channel in airway epithelial cells contributes to pathology in cystic fibrosis. Here the authors show that microRNA-9 targets anoctamin 1 and that inhibiting this interaction improves mucus dynamics in mouse ...

Chloride – The Underrated Ion in Nociceptors
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020 In contrast to pain processing neurons in the spinal cord, where the importance of chloride conductances is already well established, chloride homeostasis in primary afferent neurons has received less attention.

Journal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2022 Receptor tyrosine kinase c-Kit, a marker found on interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs), is expressed in Leydig cells, which are testicular interstitial cells. The expression of other ICC markers has not yet been reported. In this study, we investigated the

Presynaptic Localization and Possible Function of Calcium-Activated Chloride Channel Anoctamin 1 in the Mammalian Retina. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Calcium (Ca(2+))-activated chloride (Cl(-)) channels (CaCCs) play a role in the modulation of action potentials and synaptic responses in the somatodendritic regions of central neurons. In the vertebrate retina, large Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) currents (ICl(
