Regulation of Eag by ca <sup>2+</sup> /calmodulin controls presynaptic excitability in <i>Drosophila</i>
2017-11-07
Abstract excerpt
Drosophila ether-à-go-go (eag ) is the founding member of a large family of voltage-gated K + channels, the KCNH family, which includes Kv10, 11 and 12, (Ganetzky et al. 1999). Concurrent binding of calcium/calmodulin (Ca 2+ /CaM) to N-and C-terminal sites inhibits mammalian EAG1 channels at sub-micromolar Ca 2+ concentrations (Schonherr et al. 2000), likely by causing pore constriction (Whicher and MacKinnon 2...
