Drosophila 14-3-3
Monomeric 14-3-3 Protein Is Sufficient to Modulate the Activity
of the Drosophila Slowpoke Calcium-dependent
Potassium Channel*
§,
,
(D14-3-3
)
modulates the activity of the Slowpoke calcium-dependent
potassium channel (dSlo) by interacting with the dSlo binding protein,
Slob. We show here that D14-3-3
forms dimers in vitro.
Site-directed mutations in its putative dimerization interface result
in a dimerization-deficient form of D14-3-3
. Both the wild-type and
dimerization-deficient forms of D14-3-3
bind to Slob with similar
affinity and form complexes with dSlo. When dSlo and Slob are expressed
in mammalian cells, the dSlo channel activity is similarly modulated by
co-expression of either the wild-type or the dimerization-deficient
form of D14-3-3
. In addition, dSlo is still modulated by wild-type
D14-3-3
in the presence of a 14-3-3 mutant, which does not itself
bind to Slob but forms heterodimers with the wild-type 14-3-3. These data, taken together, suggest that monomeric D14-3-3
is capable of
modulating dSlo channel activity in this regulatory complex.
