Cardiolipin binding enhances KcsA channel gating via both its specific and dianion-monoanion interchangeable sites
Summary: KcsA is a potassium channel with a plethora of structural and functional information, but its activity in the KcsA-producing actinomycete membranes remains elusive.

description | Summary: KcsA is a potassium channel with a plethora of structural and functional information, but its activity in the KcsA-producing actinomycete membranes remains elusive. To determine lipid species involved in channel-modulation, a surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based methodology, characterized by immobilization of membrane proteins under a membrane environment, was applied. Dianionic cardiolipin (CL) showed extremely higher affinity for KcsA than monoanionic lipids. The SPR experiments further demonstrated that CL bound not only to the N-terminal M0 helix, a lipid-sensor domain, but to the M0 helix-deleted mutant. In contrast, monoanionic lipids interacted primarily with the M0 helix. This indicates the presence of an alternative CL-binding site, plausibly in the transmembrane domain. Single-channel recordings demonstrated that CL enhanced channel opening in an M0-independent manner. Taken together, the action of monoanionic lipids is exclusively mediated by the M0 helix, while CL binds both the M0 helix and its specific site, further enhancing the channel activity. |
