Thus, upon bathing Shab channels in 0 K<sup>+</sup> solutions the ion conductance, G<sub>K</sub>, irreversibly collapses. Related to this, studies with isolated KcsA channels have suggested that there is a transition [K<sup>+</sup>] around which the pore takes one of two conformations, either the low (non-conducting) or high K<sup>+</sup> (conducting) crystal structures. We examined this premise by looking at the K<sup>+</sup>-dependency of G<sub>K</sub> stability of Shab channels within the cell membrane environment. We found that: K<sup>+</sup> effect on G<sub>K</sub> stability is highly asymmetrical, and that as internal K<sup>+</sup> is replaced by Na<sup>+</sup> G<sub>K</sub> drops in a way that suggests a transition internal [K<sup>+</sup>]. Additionally, we found that external permeant ions inhibit G<sub>K</sub> drop with a potency that differs from the global selectivity-sequence of K<sup>+</sup> pores; the non-permeant TEA inhibited G<sub>K</sub> drop in a K<sup>+</sup>-dependent manner. Upon lowering internal [K<sup>+</sup>] we observed an influx of Na<sup>+</sup> at negative potentials. Na<sup>+</sup> influx was halted by physiological external [K<sup>+</sup>], which also restored G<sub>K</sub> stability. Hyperpolarized potentials afforded G<sub>K</sub> stability but, as expected, do not restore G<sub>K</sub> selectivity. For completeness, Na<sup>+</sup> interaction with Shab was also assessed at depolarized potentials by looking at Na block followed by permeation (pore unblock) at positive potentials, in solutions approaching the 0 K<sup>+</sup> limit. The stabilizing effect of negative potentials along with the non-parallel variation of Na<sup>+</sup> permeability and conductance-stability herein reported, show that pore stability and selectivity, although related, are not strictly coupled.</p>","PeriodicalId":72555,"journal":{"name":"Channels (Austin, Tex.)","volume":" ","pages":"648-665"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8555546/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39524841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we interrogate the role of the anchor domain in the mechanically induced gating of human Piezo1 channels. Using the insertion of glycine residues at each corner of the triangular-shaped anchor domain to decouple this domain we provide evidence that the anchor is important in Piezo1 mechano-gating. Insertion of two extra glycine residues between the anchor and the outer helix of human Piezo1 causes abrogated inactivation and reduced mechanosensitivity. Whereas inserting two glycine residues at the apex of the anchor domain at the conserved amino acid P2113 causes the channel to be more sensitive to membrane forces. Correlation of stretch sensitivity with the volume of the neighboring amino acid, natively a phenylalanine (F2114), suggests this is caused by removal of steric hindrance on the inner pore-lining helix. Smaller volume amino acids at this residue increase sensitivity whereas larger volume reduces mechanosensitivity.

We have identified this variant in a pain patient and a patient suffering from severe and life-threatening orthostatic hypotension. In addition, we report a female patient suffering from muscle pain and carrying the Nav1.7/E1139K variant. We tested both Nav1.7 variants by whole-cell voltage-clamp recordings in HEK293 cells, revealing a slightly enhanced current density for the N1245S variant when co-expressed with the β1 subunit. This effect was counteracted by an enhanced slow inactivation. Both variants showed similar voltage dependence of activation and steady-state fast inactivation, as well as kinetics of fast inactivation, deactivation, and use-dependency compared to WT Nav1.7. Finally, homology modeling revealed that the N1245S substitution results in different intramolecular interaction partners. Taken together, these experiments do not point to a clear pathogenic effect of either the N1245S or E1139K variant and suggest they may not be solely responsible for the patients' pain symptoms. As discussed previously for other variants, investigations in heterologous expression systems may not sufficiently mimic the pathophysiological situation in pain patients, and single nucleotide variants in other genes or modulatory proteins are necessary for these specific variants to show their effect.
