Pivoting between Calmodulin Lobes Triggered by Calcium in the Kv7.2/Calmodulin Complex
(Public Library Science, 2014-01-28)
Kv7.2 (KCNQ2) is the principal molecular component of the slow voltage gated M-channel, which strongly influences neuronal excitability. Calmodulin (CaM) binds to two intracellular C-terminal segments of Kv7.2 channels, ...
Surface Expression and Subunit Specific Control of Steady Protein Levels by the Kv7.2 Helix A-B Linker
(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 ...
Kv7 Channels Can Function without Constitutive Calmodulin Tethering
(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 ...
