Abstract excerpt
Serum and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase (SGK) plays a key role in the regulation of epithelial Na+ transport. SGK phosphorylates Nedd4-2, an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that targets the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) for degradation. Phosphorylation increases Na+ transport by reducing Nedd4-2 binding to ENaC, which increases ENaC expression at the cell surface. Thus, SGK expression must be tightly controlled to...
