Identification of new partners of the epithelial sodium channel alpha subunit.

Malbert-Colas L, Nicolas G, Galand C, Lecomte MC, Dhermy D

A fine regulation of the amiloride-sensitive Epithelial Sodium Channel (ENaC), made of alpha, beta and gamma subunits, is crucial for maintenance of Na+ balance and blood pressure. Both beta- and gamma-ENaC participate in negative regulation by interacting with Nedd4-2, an E3 ubiquitin-ligase. Disruption of this interaction results in increased ENaC activity (Liddle syndrome). By two-hybrid screenings, we identified new potential ... [more]
