Voltage-gated Kv7.2 potassium channels regulate neuronal excitability. The gating of Kv7 channels is regulated by various mediators and neurotransmitters acting via G protein-coupled receptors; the underlying signalling cascades involve phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), Ca2+/Calmodulin and phosphorylation. Recent studies have reported that PIP2 sensitivity of Kv7.2 channels is affected by two PTMs, phosphorylation and methylation, harboured in the PIP2 binding domains. Here this project aimed to update phosphorylation and methylation sites on Kv7.2 from heterologous cells, the rat brain and GST-fusion Kv7.2 N- and C-terminal ends proteins.
