Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate enhances anionic lipid demixing by the C2 domain of PKCα.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The C2 domain of PKCα (C2α) induces fluorescence self-quenching of NBD-PS in the presence of Ca2+, which is interpreted as the demixing of phosphatidylserine from a mixture of this phospholipid with phosphatidylcholine.

PIP2 mediates functional coupling and pharmacology of neuronal KCNQ channels

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance Despite the availability of many drugs to treat epilepsy, nearly one-third of patients are not responsive to pharmacotherapy. Retigabine (RTG) is the first approved antiepileptic drug that acts by promoting activation of potassium channels ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) regulates KCNQ3 K+ channels by interacting with four cytoplasmic channel domains

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2018
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) in the plasma membrane regulates the function of many ion channels, including M-type (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member (KCNQ), Kv7) K+ channels; however, the molecular mechanisms involved ...

Myosin 7a is required for maintaining the transducing stereocilia and for force transmission to the MET channel during cochlear hair cell development

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Developmental changes in the hair‐bundle structure of outer hair cells (OHCs) and inner hair cells (IHCs) were examined in control and shaker‐1 mutant (Myo7aSh1/Sh1) mice, which carry a spontaneous missense mutation in the Myo7a gene that produces a non‐functional MYO7A protein.

Rsp5 promotes Gene Activation mediated by 9aaTAD Transcription Factors Oaf1 and Gal4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Nine-amino-acid transactivation domain, 9aaTAD, defines a large superfamily of yeast and mammals transcription factors. The transactivation of the 9aaTAD has been addressed to multiple general co-activators TAF9, MED15, CBP and p300.

PLCζ Induced Ca2+ Oscillations in Mouse Eggs Involve a Positive Feedback Cycle of Ca2+ Induced InsP3 Formation From Cytoplasmic PIP2

open access: yesFront. Cell Dev. Biol., 2018
Egg activation at fertilization in mammalian eggs is caused by a series of transient increases in the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration, referred to as Ca2+ oscillations. It is widely accepted that these Ca2+ oscillations are initiated by a sperm derived

Distinct developmental dynamics of opposing persistent currents shape motoneuron firing during motor maturation of zebrafish

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend During the first few days of development, zebrafish acquire the ability to produce increasingly refined movements that rely progressively less on the activity of primary motoneurons. At the same time, primary motoneurons undergo functional maturation, becoming increasingly capable of repetitive firing.

Dynamic role of the tether helix in PIP2-dependent gating of a G protein–gated potassium channel

open access: yesThe Journal of General Physiology, 2017
G protein–gated inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels control neuronal excitability in the brain and are implicated in several different neurological diseases.
