英文摘要
DESCRIPTION: (Adapted from the Investigator's Abstract) Dr. Zakon proposes to
use the communication signal of a weakly electric fish as a model system to
elucidate how ion currents are regulated and the significance of this
regulation for behavior. The electric organ discharge (EOD) is
sexually-dimorphic, hormone-sensitive, and individually-distinct; the waveshape
of the EOD is intimately dependent on and reflective of the membrane properties
of cells in the output motor system. The investigators wish to understand how
the magnitudes and kinetics of the ion currents in the emitter--the
electrocytes--shape the signal, and how they are regulated. In particular, they
wish to characterize the delayed rectifying K+ current further, understand what
processes give rise to the systematic variation in its kinetics, and how these
may be regulated by sex steroids. They will test whether variation in current
kinetics is influenced by phosphorylation and/or transcriptional control of the
channel (i.e. different channel genes, splicing or editing within a single
channel gene, or the expression of a beta subunit). In addition they will study
how the magnitude of both the K+ and Na+ currents are co-regulated by second
messengers and how this results in changes in the amplitude of the signal
around the fish; these changes in signal amplitude likely influence the
distance over which these signals are received in the fish's environment.
Understanding how ion channels function and are regulated is critical to our
fundamental knowledge of excitable cells, especially as malfunctions of ion
channels are increasingly recognized in a variety of diseases.
