Functional Role of Lipid Raft Microdomains in Cyclic Nucleotide-Gated Channel Activation

Abstract: Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channels are the primary targets of light-and odorant-induced signaling in photoreceptors and olfactory sensory neurons. Compartmentalized cyclic nucleotide signaling is necessary to ensure rapid and efficient activation of these nonselective cation channels. However, relatively little is known about the subcellular localization of CNG channels or the mechanisms of their membrane partitioning. Lipid raft domains are specialized membrane microdomains rich in cholesterol and sphingo… Show more

“…Responses detected by isoforms of these channels that have an EC 50 for activation by cAMP of ϳ10 M suggest that levels can reach high micromolar concentrations (23). Furthermore, because CNG channels appear to be found primarily outside of caveolar membrane fractions (6), this would be consistent with our experimental and modeling results suggesting that cAMP activity is higher specifically in domains associated with extracaveolar and/or bulk cytoplasmic compartments.…”

“…1). When investigating the concentration of detergent and incubation time needed to separate raft from non-raft proteins within the range reported in the literature 5,6 , we also observed a dose-response relationship 8 . Future studies should therefore clearly demonstrate that the method selected is appropriate for the tissue type under investigation to separate raft from non-raft proteins when claiming raft association of particular proteins.…”

“…Only a few studies show convincing data of a clear separation of raft from non-raft proteins 5,6,8 . This separation relies highly on the preparation procedure, in particular the use of detergent, for which the type of detergent, the concentration and the duration of incubation are the main determinants.…”

“…The absence of significant recovery of CNG channel fusion protein fluorescence in AWB and ASK cilia upon photobleaching the middle segments argues against a requirement for IFT in maintaining ciliary localization of these channels in these domains under the examined conditions. One possibility is that these proteins are trafficked through IFT or other mechanisms to cilia middle segments early in development, but are irreversibly anchored once localized, perhaps in association with lipid rafts (Brady et al, 2004;Ding et al, 2008). An alternative hypothesis is that CNG channel turnover in the middle segments is initiated only under defined conditions.…”
