Obligate coupling of CFTR pore opening to tight nucleotide-binding domain dimerization
In CFTR, the chloride channel mutated in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, ATP-binding-induced dimerization of two cytosolic nucleotide binding domains (NBDs) opens the pore, and dimer disruption following ATP hydrolysis closes it.

Ubiquitylation of Ion Channels
Ubiquitylation (i.e., covalent attachment of ubiquitin moieties to proteins) of ion channels allows regulation of their activity and fate. Nedd4/Nedd4-like ubiquitin-protein ligases bind to, ubiquitylate, and modulate the internalization of several channels bearing PY motifs, whereas endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (involving ...

Cell-specific mechanisms of TMEM16A Ca2+-activated chloride channel in cancer
TMEM16A (known as anoctamin 1) Ca2+-activated chloride channel is overexpressed in many tumors. TMEM16A overexpression can be caused by gene amplification in many tumors harboring 11q13 amplification.

Pacemaking activity in substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons is generated by the coordinated activity of a variety of distinct somatodendritic voltage- and calcium-gated ion channels. We investigated whether these functional interactions could arise from

FGF14 modulates resurgent sodium current in mouse cerebellar Purkinje neurons
Rapid firing of cerebellar Purkinje neurons is facilitated in part by a voltage-gated Na+ (NaV) ‘resurgent’ current, which allows renewed Na+ influx during membrane repolarization.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.
