Ectopic expression of KCNE3 accelerates cardiac repolarization and abbreviates the QT interval

2002-04-15

Abstract excerpt

Regulatory subunit KCNE3 (E3) interacts with KCNQ1 (Q1) in epithelia, regulating its activation kinetics and augmenting current density.Since E3 is expressed weakly in the heart, we hypothesized that ectopic expression of E3 in cardiac myocytes might abbreviate action potential duration (APD) by interacting with Q1 and augmenting the delayed rectifier current (I K ).Thus, we transiently coexpressed E3 with Q1 and...
