AbstractInherited
mutations and a polymorphism in minK-related peptide 1 (MiRP1) have
been linked to congenital or acquired long-QT syndrome, pointing to the
importance of MiRP1 in maintaining the cardiac electrical stability. We
tested whether MiRP1 could affect the function of Kv4.x (x=2 and 3),
the major pore-forming (
) subunits of transient outward
(Ito)
channels in the heart. We used the
Xenopus oocyte expression
system to examine the effects of MiRP1 on Kv4.x channel gating kinetics
and current amplitude and correlated these effects with MiRP1
expression level. MiRP1 slowed the rates of Kv4.2 activation and
inactivation and shifted the voltage dependence of channel gating in
the positive direction. These effects had a similar "dose"
dependence: they plateaued at a cRNA ratio (MiRP1:Kv4.2) of 13:1, with
half-maximum effects at estimated cRNA ratios of 2 to 4. On the other
hand, MiRP1 had no significant effects on Kv4.2 current amplitude in
the same range of expression level. When expressed at a comparable low
level, MiRP1 had similar (although smaller) effects on Kv4.3 but could
not modulate Kv1.4 (another
subunit of
Ito
channels in the heart). Kv4.2 could be coimmunoprecipitated with
epitope-tagged MiRP1, indicating that the 2 could form a stable
complex. Our data suggest that MiRP1 may serve as a regulatory (ß)
subunit of
Ito
channels in the heart. This is supported by the observation that MiRP1
induced an "overshoot" of Kv4.2 current amplitude during channel
recovery from inactivation, similar to the overshoot of
Ito
described for human epicardial myocytes.
