Alternative Splicing Governs Cone Cyclic Nucleotide-gated (CNG) Channel Sensitivity to Regulation by Phosphoinositides

Abstract: Background: Variants of photoreceptor CNG channels are produced by alternative splicing of precursor mRNA. Results: Inclusion of an optional exon in human CNGA3 transcripts produces channel isoforms with enhanced sensitivity to phosphoinositides via an allosteric mechanism. Conclusion: Alternative splicing of CNGA3 transcripts controls phosphoinositide regulation of cone CNG channels. Significance: These findings reveal the functional importance of CNGA3 alternative splicing.

“…Our study further show that the (ac) and (a) isotypes of TMEM16A present different PI(4,5)P 2 sensitivity and that a single mutation of a lysine (K) residue in the c-segment suffices to remove the PI(4,5)P 2 -mediated TMEM16A(ac) regulation in the presence of ATP. Similar differential phosphoinositide regulation dependent on a channel's alternative splicing was previously reported in cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channels, where inclusion of CNGA3 exon3 endows outstandingly potentiated sensitivity to PI(4,5)P 2 and PI(3,4,5)P 3 (42). Because the alternative exons of TMEM16A are spliced in a tissue-specific manner (5), the sensitivity to PI(4,5)P 2 should differ in different tissues.…”

“…The first is the cyclic nucleotide gated CNG family, channels that are opened by intracellular ATP or GTP. CNG channels of photoreceptors (cones and rods) and olfactory neurons require more cyclic nucleotide to be activated when levels of PI(4,5)P 2 or PI(3,4,5)P 3 increase [118-122]. The sensitivity to PI(4,5)P 2 varies with the specific channel subtype, being low for olfactory channels, as well as with the splice variant expressed.…”

“…As the uterine arteries from Rln −/− mice no longer demonstrated a reduced sensitivity to ACh during late pregnancy in the absence of inhibitors, this may be due to an increase in ACh receptor expression. Of the novel genes influenced by relaxin deficiency Cnga3 , a cyclic nucleotide gated channel subunit, is involved in signal transduction and can be influenced by calcium ions (Dai et al, 2014 ), making it an interesting find. The hypoxia-inducing factor α ( Hif1 α), a subunit of a hypoxia acting transcription factor (Benita et al, 2009 ) was downregulated in the uterine artery of late pregnant Rln −/− mice.…”
