Journal ArticleDOI

Polarized trafficking and surface expression of the AQP4 water channel are coordinated by serial and regulated interactions with different clathrin-adaptor complexes.

TL;DR: It is shown that two independent C‐terminal signals determine AQP4 basolateral membrane targeting in epithelial MDCK cells, and stress‐induced kinase casein kinase (CK)II phosphorylates the Ser276 immediately preceding the tyrosine motif, increasing AQp4–μ3A interaction and enhancing AQP 4–lysosomal targeting and degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two types of K+ channels in the apical membrane of rabbit proximal tubule in primary culture.

TL;DR: The patch-clamp technique was used to investigate ionic channels in the apical membrane of rabbit proximal tubule cells in primary culture and revealed the presence of a highly selective K+ channel with a conductance of 130 pS that was blocked by barium, tetraethylammonium and Leiurus quinquestriatus scorpion venom when applied to the extracellular face of the channel.
Journal ArticleDOI

Basolateral membrane expression of a K+ channel, Kir 2.3, is directed by a cytoplasmic COOH-terminal domain

TL;DR: The data indicate that the basolateral sorting determinant in Kir 2.3 is composed of a unique arrangement of trafficking motifs, containing tandem, conceivably overlapping, biosynthetic targeting and PDZ-based signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorescent video-microscopy study of regulatory volume decrease in primary culture of rabbit proximal convoluted tubule

TL;DR: RVD in primary cultures of rabbit proximal convoluted tubules involves the stimulation of a potassium conductance via the Ca2(+)-activated maxi K+ channel and that the accompanying anion is chloride via a conductive pathway and (or) a KCl cotransport.
Journal ArticleDOI

Basolateral membrane targeting of a renal-epithelial inwardly rectifying potassium channel from the cortical collecting duct, CCD-IRK3, in MDCK cells

TL;DR: Cloning an inward-rectifying K channel cDNA from a cortical collecting duct cell line and studying the targeting of several different epitope-tagged CCD-IRK3 suggest that this recombinant channel may encode the small-conductance CCD basolateral K channel.
