Calcium-Activated Chloride Channel ANO1/TMEM16A: Regulation of Expression and Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Anoctamin-1 (ANO1), also known as TMEM16A, is the most studied member of anoctamin family of calcium-activated chloride channels with diverse cellular functions.

Calmodulin-Dependent Regulation of Overexpressed but Not Endogenous TMEM16A Expressed in Airway Epithelial Cells

open access: yesMembranes, 2021
Regulation of the Ca2+-activated Cl− channel TMEM16A by Ca2+/calmodulin (CAM) is discussed controversially. In the present study, we compared regulation of TMEM16A by Ca2+/calmodulin (holo-CAM), CAM-dependent kinase (CAMKII), and CAM-dependent ...

Potentiating TMEM16A does not stimulate airway mucus secretion or bronchial and pulmonary arterial smooth muscle contraction

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, 2020
The calcium‐activated chloride channel (CaCC) TMEM16A enables chloride secretion across several transporting epithelia, including in the airways. Additional roles for TMEM16A have been proposed, which include regulating mucus production and secretion and

Increased complexity of Tmem16a/Anoctamin 1 transcript alternative splicing [PDF]

open access: yesBMC 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

MicroRNA-9 downregulates the ANO1 chloride channel and contributes to cystic fibrosis lung pathology

open access: yesNature 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 ...

Disulfide Bond Connectivity and Oligomeric State of Anoctamin-1 [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical 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).

Chloride – The Underrated Ion in Nociceptors

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Mechanical Stress Modulates Calcium-Activated-Chloride Currents in Differentiating Lens Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
During accommodation, the lens changes focus by altering its shape following contraction and relaxation of the ciliary muscle. At the cellular level, these changes in shape may be accompanied by fluid flow in and out of individual lens cells.
