Modulation of different K+ currents in Drosophila: a hypothetical role for the Eag subunit in multimeric K+ channels [PDF]
We examined the role of the ether a go-go (eag) gene in modulation of K+ currents and the possibility of its protein product Eag as a subunit in the heteromultimeric assembly of K+ channels by voltage-clamp analysis of larval muscle membrane currents ...

Alternative Splicing and Polyadenylation Contribute to the Generation of hERG1 C-terminal Isoforms
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene 1 (hERG1) encodes the pore-forming subunit of the rapidly activating delayed rectifier potassium channel. Several hERG1 isoforms with different N- and C-terminal ends have been identified.

ω-3 and ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids block HERG channels [PDF]
11 pages, 7 figures.Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have been reported to exhibit antiarrhythmic properties, which have been attributed to their availability to modulate Na(+), Ca(2+), and several K(+) channels.

Tumor cell-selective apoptosis induction through targeting of KV10.1 via bifunctional TRAIL antibody
Background The search for strategies to target ion channels for therapeutic applications has become of increasing interest. Especially, the potassium channel KV10.1 (Ether-á-go-go) is attractive as target since this surface protein is virtually not ...

An electrophysiological study of breast cancer cell HCC1937 [PDF]
Potassium channels are considered as key molecules in the progression of several cancer types. Human ether a go-go (hEAG) potassium channels have been reported to possess oncogenic properties and to regulate the cell cycle. The present study was designed

Effect of zeolite topology and reactor configuration on the direct conversion of CO2 to light olefins and aromatics [PDF]
The direct transformation of CO2 into high-value-added hydrocarbons (i.e., olefins and aromatics) has the potential to make a decisive impact in our society. However, despite the efforts of the scientific community, no direct synthetic route exists today

Background: The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HERG) encodes the α-subunit of rapidly activating delayed-rectifier potassium channels. Mutations in this gene cause long QT syndrome type 2 (LQT2).

Peroxisomal dysfunctions cause lysosomal storage and axonal Kv1 channel redistribution in peripheral neuropathy [PDF]
Impairment of peripheral nerve function is frequent in neurometabolic diseases, but mechanistically not well understood. Here, we report a novel disease mechanism and the finding that glial lipid metabolism is critical for axon function, independent of ...
