Scientists at University of Tubingen, Department of Physiology release new data on physiology
Published in Biotech Business Week, March 16th, 2009
New research, 'The C-terminal PDZ-binding motif in the Kv1.5 potassium channel governs its modulation by the Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor 2,' is the subject of a report. According to a study from Germany, "Kv1.5 belongs to the family of voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels and contains a N-and a C-terminal PDZ-binding motif that might be recognized by PDZ domains on the scaffold proteins NHERF1 and NHERF2. Expression studies in Xenopus oocytes demonstrated that NHERF1 and NHERF2 activate Kv1.5, an effect requiring the C-terminal PDZ-binding motif on Kv1.5."
"NHERF2 enhances Kv1.5 activity and cell surface expression as determined by electrophysiology and...
