Abstract excerpt
The non-functional dipeptidyl peptidase, DPPY (DPP10), regulates the expression and gating of K+ channels in Kv4 family by tightly binding to these pore-forming subunits. Neural tissue-specific expression of this and the related DPPX (DPP6) is thought to confer rapid inactivation and other unique properties of neuronal Kv4 channels. Here we report that DPPY mRNA is abundant in human adrenal gland, but very low in...
