Association and colocalization of K+ channel alpha- and beta-subunit polypeptides in rat brain

Department of CNS Biological Research, Lederle Laboratories, American Cyanamid Company, Pearl River, New York 10965, USA.
Recent cloning of auxiliary subunits associated with voltage-gated ion
channels and their subsequent coexpression with the channel forming
alpha-subunits has revealed that the expression level, gating and
conductance properties of the expressed channels can be profoundly affected
by the presence of an auxiliary subunit polypeptide. In the present study,
we raised antibodies against the beta-subunit associated with the bovine
dendrotoxin sensitive K(+)-channel complex and used these antibodies to
characterize the related beta-subunit polypeptides in rat brain. The
anti-beta-subunit antibodies displayed a specific reaction on immunoblots
of rat brain membranes with a major 38 kDa polypeptide, and a minor 41 kDa
polypeptide, which correspond closely to the predicted sizes of the Kv beta
2 and Kv beta 1 beta-subunit polypeptides, respectively, recently cloned
from rat brain. Reciprocal coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that
the beta-subunit polypeptides are associated with Kv1.2 and Kv1.4, but not
Kv2.1, alpha- subunits. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that the
beta-subunit polypeptides were widely distributed in adult rat brain.
Moreover, the cellular distribution of beta-subunit immunoreactivity
corresponded closely with immunoreactivity for Kv1.2, and to a lesser
extent Kv1.4, but not with Kv2.1. These results suggest that neuronal
mechanisms may exist to direct the selective interaction of K+ channel
alpha- and beta- subunit polypeptides, and that the properties of K+
channels in specific subcellular domains may be regulated by the formation
of heteromultimeric K+ channel complexes containing specific combinations
of alpha- and beta-subunits.
