Abstract excerpt
Familial hyperkalemic hypertension is caused by mutations in with-no-lysine kinases (WNKs) or in proteins that mediate their degradation, kelch-like 3 (KLHL3) and cullin 3 (CUL3). Although the mechanisms by which WNK and KLHL3 mutations cause the disease are now clear, the effects of the disease-causing CUL3Δ403-459 mutation remain controversial. Possible mechanisms, including hyperneddylation, altered ubiquitin...
