1 19794150 Here we show that Slo1 proteins interact with Neph1, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily expressed in slit diaphragm domains of podocytes and in vertebrate and invertebrate nervous systems.
2 19794150 Neph1 can interact with all three extreme COOH-terminal variants of Slo1 (Slo1(VEDEC), Slo1(QEERL), and Slo1(EMVYR)) as ascertained by glutathione S-transferase (GST) pull-down assays and by coimmunoprecipitation.
3 19794150 Neph1 is partially colocalized in intracellular compartments with endogenous Slo1 in podocytes and ciliary ganglion neurons.
4 19794150 Consistent with this, small interfering RNA (siRNA) knockdown of endogenous Neph1 in embryonic day 10 ciliary ganglion neurons causes an increase in steady-state surface expression of Slo1 and an increase in whole cell Ca(2+)-dependent K(+) current.
5 19794150 Surprisingly, a comparable Neph1 knockdown in podocytes causes a decrease in surface expression of Slo1 and a decrease in whole cell BK(Ca) currents.
6 19794150 In podocytes, Neph1 siRNA also caused a decrease in nephrin, even though the Neph1 siRNA had no sequence homology with nephrin.
7 21402783 Unlike wild-type Myo1c, the membrane localization of Neph1 was significantly reduced in podocytes expressing dominant negative Myo1c.
8 21402783 We further demonstrate that similarly to Neph1, Myo1c also binds nephrin and reduces its localization at the podocyte cell membrane.
9 18258597 Furthermore, Neph1 attenuates ERK activation elicited by Fyn, and this inhibitory effect requires the intact binding motif for the Grb2 SH2 domain.
10 18258597 Our results shown here demonstrate that Neph1 is a novel in vivo substrate of SFK and suggest that Neph1 modulates ERK signaling through phosphorylation-dependent interaction with Grb2.
