Mutations in the cyclic nucleotide binding domain
(CNBD) of the human ether-a-go-go-related gene
(HERG) K+ channel are associated with LQT2, a form of
hereditary Long QT syndrome (LQTS). Elevation of cAMP can modulate HERG
K+ channels both by direct binding and indirect regulation
through protein kinase A. To assess the physiological significance of cAMP binding to HERG, we introduced mutations to disrupt the cyclic nucleotide binding domain. Eight mutants including two naturally occurring LQT2 mutants V822M and R823W were constructed. Relative cAMP
binding capacity was reduced or absent in CNBD mutants. Mutant homotetramers carry little or no K+ current despite normal
protein abundance and surface expression. Co-expression of mutant and
wild-type HERG resulted in currents with altered voltage dependence but
without dominant current suppression. The data from co-expression of
V822M and wild-type HERG best fit a model where one normal subunit
within a tetramer allows nearly normal current expression. The presence
of KCNE2, an accessory protein that associates with HERG, however,
conferred a partially dominant current suppression by CNBD mutants.
Thus KCNE2 plays a pivotal role in determining the phenotypic
severity of some forms of LQT2, which suggests that the CNBD of HERG
may be involved in its interaction with KCNE2.
