wild-type HA-tagged AMPKalpha1, FLAG-tagged AMPKbeta1, HA-tagged AMPKgamma1, constitutively active HA-tagged AMPKgamma1 mutant R70Q , kinase dead mutant HA-tagged AMPKalpha1 mutant K45R, and wild type HA-tagged AMPK alpha2, recombinant expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Coexpression with human KCNQ1/KCNE1. AMPK inhibites voltage-gated outward currents in KCNQ1/KCNE1-expressing Xenopus oocytes. Coexpression of the AMP-activated protein kinase, i.e. AMPKalpha1, AMPKbeta1, and AMPKgamma1 | Homo sapiens |
Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
K45R | site-directed mutagenesis, a kinase dead mutant AMPK, the mutant is ineffective in inhibiting heterotetrameric K+-channel KCNQ1/KCNE1 | Homo sapiens |
R70Q | site-directed mutagenesis, the constitutively active mutant is more effective in inhibiting heterotetrameric K+-channel KCNQ1/KCNE1 than the wild-type enzyme | Homo sapiens |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | ischemia stimulates the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a serine/threonine kinase, sensing energy depletion and stimulating several cellular mechanisms to enhance energy production and to limit energy utilization. AMPK downregulates the epithelial Na+ channel ENaC mediated by the ubiquitin ligase Nedd4-2. AMPK regulates the heterotetrameric K+-channel KCNQ1/KCNE1. Wild-type and constitutively active AMPK significantly reduce KCNQ1/KCNE1-mediated currents and reduce KCNQ1 abundance in the cell membrane of transfected Xenopus laevis oocytes, overview. AMPK decreased the KCNQ1 protein abundance in the cell membrane via ubiquitin ligase Nedd4-2 | Homo sapiens |
