      Kv7 Channels Can Function without Constitutive Calmodulin Tethering 

      Gómez Posada, Juan Camilo; Aivar, Paloma; Alberdi González, Araitz; Alaimo Campi, Alessandro ORCID; Etxeberria, Ainhoa; Fernández-Orth, Juncal; Zamalloa Echevarría, Teresa ORCID; Roura-Ferrer, Meritxell; Villace Lozano, Patricia; Areso Goiricelaya, María Pilar; Casis Sáenz, Oscar ORCID; Villarroel Muñoz, Álvaro (Public Library of Science, 2011-09-28)
      M-channels are voltage-gated potassium channels composed of Kv7.2-7.5 subunits that serve as important regulators of neuronal excitability. Calmodulin binding is required for Kv7 channel function and mutations in Kv7.2 ...

      Surface Expression and Subunit Specific Control of Steady Protein Levels by the Kv7.2 Helix A-B Linker 

      Aivar, Paloma; Fernández-Orth, Juncal; Gomis Pérez, Carolina; Alberdi González, Araitz; Alaimo Campi, Alessandro ORCID; Rodríguez, Manuel S.; Giraldez, Teresa; Miranda, Pablo; Areso Goiricelaya, María Pilar; Villarroel Muñoz, Álvaro (Public Library of Science, 2013-10-24)
      Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 are the main components of the neuronal voltage-dependent M-current, which is a subthreshold potassium conductance that exerts an important control on neuronal excitability. Despite their predominantly ...
