Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a gene encoding a hyperpolarization-activated pacemaker channel of brain.

TL;DR: Heterologous expression of mBCNG-1 demonstrates that it does indeed code for a channel with properties indistinguishable from pacemaker channels in brain and similar to those in heart, demonstrating that these channels constitute a widely expressed gene family.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular and Functional Heterogeneity of Hyperpolarization-Activated Pacemaker Channels in the Mouse CNS

TL;DR: Comparisons of mRNA expression with an electrophysiological characterization of nativeIh currents in hippocampal and thalamic neurons support the idea that the functional heterogeneity of Ih channels is attributable, in part, to differential isoform expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular mechanism of cAMP modulation of HCN pacemaker channels

TL;DR: It is demonstrated by constructing truncation mutants that the CNBD inhibits activation of the core transmembrane domain and cAMP binding relieves this inhibition, resulting in differences in activation gating and extent of cAMP modulation between the HCN1 and HCN2 isoforms.
Journal ArticleDOI

The HCN gene family: molecular basis of the hyperpolarization-activated pacemaker channels.

TL;DR: The molecular basis of the hyperpolarization‐activated cation channels that underlie the anomalous rectifying current variously termed Ih, Iq, or If is discussed and an initial attempt at defining the identity and subunit composition of channels underlying native Ih is undertaken.
Journal ArticleDOI

Subunit Stoichiometry of Cyclic Nucleotide-Gated Channels and Effects of Subunit Order on Channel Function

TL;DR: The data demonstrate that cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels are tetrameric like the related voltage- gated potassium ion channels; the order of subunits affects the conductance of the channel; and the channel has 4-fold symmetry in which four asymmetric subunits assemble head to tail around a central axis.
