Antagonistic Regulation of CFTR Cell Surface Expression by Protein Kinases WNK4...
Mendes, A.I.; Matos, P.; Amaral, M.D.; Jordan, P.Members of the WNK (with no lysine (K)) subfamily of protein kinases regulate various ion channels involved in sodium, potassium and chloride homeostasis by either inducing their phosphorylation or regulating the number of channel proteins expressed at the cell surface. Here, we describe that WNK4 promotes the cell surface expression of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in mammalian...
Uma variante do gene WNK4 está associada à osteoporose mas não à hipertensão na...
Mendes, A.I.; Mascarenhas, M.R.; Matos, S; Sousa, I; Ferreira, J; Barbosa, A.P.; Bicho, M; Jordan, P.Germline mutations in the WNK4 gene originate Gordon syndrome or pseudohypoaldosteronism type II, a familial form of hypertension with hyperkalemia and hypercalciuria. The WNK4 protein encodes a protein kinase involved in the regulation of various renal ion channels. In order to elucidate the contribution of WNK4 genetic variants to hypertension and/or osteoporosis, we analyzed 271 control individuals and a coh...
Um novo mecanismo molecular para a regulação do transportador de glicose GLUT1
Mendes, A.I.; Matos, P.; Moniz, S.; Jordan, P.Prémio de Investigação Básica ; One mechanism by which cells regulate the uptake of glucose is the number of glucose transporter proteins (GLUT) present at the plasma membrane. In insulin-responsive cells types, GLUT4 is released from intracellular storage vesicles through inactivation of the Rab GTPase activating protein TBC1D4, also known as AS160. Using protein biochemical techniques we analysed complex for...
Contribution of casein kinase 2 and spleen tyrosine kinase to CFTR trafficking ...
Luz, S.; Kongsuphol, P.; Mendes, A.I.; Romeiras, F.; Sousa, M.; Schreiber, R.; Matos, P.; Jordan, P.; Metha, A.; Amaral, M.D.; Kunzelmann, K.Previously, the pleiotropic "master kinase" casein kinase 2 (CK2) was shown to interact with CFTR, the protein responsible for cystic fibrosis (CF). Moreover, CK2 inhibition abolished CFTR conductance in cell-attached membrane patches, native epithelial ducts, and Xenopus oocytes. CFTR possesses two CK2 phosphorylation sites (S422 and T1471), with unclear impact on its processing and trafficking. Here, we inves...
