Category: Research publication

December 1, 2019December 30, 2019Research publication

Publication: Neuronal ER-PM junctions organized by Kv2-VAP pairing recruit Nir proteins and affect phosphoinositide homeostasis

Abstract.  The association of plasma membrane (PM)-localized voltage-gated potassium (Kv2) channels with endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-localized vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated proteins VAPA and VAPB defines […]

December 1, 2019December 30, 2019Research publication

Publication: Kv2.1 mediates spatial and functional coupling of L-type calcium channels and ryanodine receptors in neurons

Abstract. The voltage-gated K+ channel Kv2.1 serves a major structural role in the soma and proximal dendrites of mammalian brain neurons, tethering the […]

October 23, 2019December 1, 2019Research publication

Publication: A toolbox of nanobodies developed and validated for use as intrabodies and nanoscale immunolabels in mammalian brain neurons

Abstract.  Nanobodies (nAbs) are small, minimal antibodies that have distinct attributes that make them uniquely suited for certain biomedical research, diagnostic and therapeutic […]

October 18, 2018December 1, 2019Research publication

Publication: Antibody validation: a view from the mountains

Abstract. Validation of antibodies and other protein binders is a subject of pressing concern for the research community and one which is […]

September 27, 2018December 30, 2019Research publication

Publication: Remodeling neuronal ER-PM junctions is a conserved nonconducting function of Kv2 plasma membrane ion channels

Abstract: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and plasma membrane (PM) form junctions crucial to ion and lipid signaling and homeostasis. The Kv2.1 ion […]

August 29, 2018December 30, 2019Research publication

Publication: Identification of VAPA and VAPB as Kv2 Channel-Interacting Proteins Defining Endoplasmic Reticulum-Plasma Membrane Junctions in Mammalian Brain Neurons

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Our study identified the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated proteins isoforms A and B (VAPA and VAPB) as […]
