Kv4 α-subunits exist as ternary complexes (TC) with potassium channel interacting proteins (KChIP) and dipeptidyl peptidase-like proteins (DPLP); multiple ancillary proteins also interact with the α-subunits throughout the channel's lifetime. Dynamic regulation of Kv4.2 protein interactions adapts the transient potassium current, IA, mediated by Kv4 α-subunits. Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is an 11 kD peptide post-translationally added to lysine (K) residues to regulate protein-protein interactions. We previously demonstrated that when expressed in human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells, Kv4.2 can be SUMOylated at two K residues, K437 and K579. SUMOylation at K437 increased surface expression of electrically silent channels while SUMOylation at K579 reduced IA maximal conductance (Gmax) without altering surface expression. KChIP and DPLP subunits are known to modify the pattern of Kv4.2 post-translational decorations and/or their effects. In this study, co-expressing Kv4.2 with KChIP2a and DPP10c altered the effects of enhanced Kv4.2 SUMOylation. First, the effect of enhanced SUMOylation was the same for a TC containing either the wild-type Kv4.2 or the mutant K437R Kv4.2, suggesting that either the experimental manipulation no longer enhanced K437 SUMOylation or K437 SUMOylation no longer influenced Kv4.2 surface expression. Second, instead of decreasing IA Gmax, enhanced SUMOylation at K579 now produced a significant ∼37-70% increase in IA maximum conductance (Gmax) and a significant ∼30-50% increase in Kv4.2g surface expression that was accompanied by a 65% reduction in TC internalization. Blocking clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) in HEK cells expressing the Kv4.2 TC mimicked and occluded the effect of SUMO on IA Gmax; however, the amount of Kv4.2 associated with the major adaptor for constitutive CME, adaptor protein 2 (AP2), was not SUMO dependent. Thus, SUMOylation reduced Kv4.2 internalization by acting downstream of Kv4.2 recruitment into clathrin-coated pits. In sum, the two major findings of this study are: SUMOylation of Kv4.2 at K579 regulates TC internalization most likely by promoting channel recycling. Additionally, there is a reciprocity between Kv4.2 SUMOylation and the Kv4.2 interactome such that SUMOylation regulates the interactome and the interactome influences the pattern and effect of SUMOylation.

Global nonprofit biological resource center (BRC) and research organization that provides biological products, technical services and educational programs to private industry, government and academic organizations. Its mission is to acquire, authenticate, preserve, develop and distribute biological materials, information, technology, intellectual property and standards for the advancement and application of scientific knowledge. The primary purpose of ATCC is to use its resources and experience as a BRC to become the world leader in standard biological reference materials management, intellectual property resource management and translational research as applied to biomaterial development, standardization and certification. ATCC characterizes cell lines, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, as well as develops and evaluates assays and techniques for validating research resources and preserving and distributing biological materials to the public and private sector research communities.
View all literature mentionsNon-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
View all literature mentionsPublic database with millions of high-resolution images showing the spatial distribution of proteins in different normal human tissues and cancer types, as well as different human cell lines. The data is released together with application-specific validation performed for each antibody, including immunohistochemisty, Western blot analysis and, for a large fraction, a protein array assay and immunofluorescent based confocal microscopy. The database has been developed in a gene-centric manner with the inclusion of all human genes predicted from genome efforts. Search functionalities allow for complex queries regarding protein expression profiles, protein classes and chromosome location. Antibodies included have been analyzed using a standardized protocol in a single attempt without further efforts to optimize the procedure and therefore it cannot be excluded that certain observed binding properties are due to technical rather than biological reasons and that further optimization could result in a different outcome. Submission of antibodies: The Swedish Human Proteome Atlas (HPA) program, invites submission of antibodies from both academic and commercial sources to be included in the human protein atlas. All antibodies will be validated by the HPA-program by a standard procedure and antibodies that are accepted will be use in the tissue- profiling program to generate high-resolution immunohistochemistry images representing a wide spectrum of normal tissues and cancer types.
