Image_2_The S2–S3 Loop of Kv7.4 Channels Is Essential for Calmodulin Regulation of Channel Activation.tif by Wenhui Zhuang (10007378)

“…Kv7.4 channels co-expressed with wild-type (WT) CaM show inhibited activation when intracellular calcium levels increase, while Kv7.4 channels co-expressed with CaM₁₂₃₄ or CaM₃ are insensitive to calcium. Mutations C156A, C157A, C158V, R159, and R161A, which are located within the Kv7.4 S2–S3 loop, dramatically facilitate activation of Kv7.4 channels co-expressed with WT CaM but have no effect on activation of Kv7.4 channels co-expressed with CaM₃, indicating that these five mutations decrease the inhibitory effect of Ca²⁺/CaM. …”
