A Missense Mutation in Kcnc3 Causes Hippocampal Learning Deficits in Mice

ABSTRACT: Although a wide variety of genetic tools have been developed to study learning and memory, the molecular basis of memory encoding remains incompletely understood. Here, we undertook an unbiased approach to identify novel genes critical for memory encoding. From a large-scale in vivo mutagenesis screen using contextual fear conditioning, we isolated a mutant, named Clueless, with spatial learning deficits. A causative missense mutation (G434V) was found in the voltage gated potassium channel, subfamily C member 3 (Kcnc3) gene in a region that encodes a transmembrane voltage sensor. Generation of a Kcnc3G434V CRISPR mutant mouse confirmed this mutation as the cause of the learning defects. While G434V had no effect on transcription, translation, or trafficking of the channel, electrophysiological analysis of the G434V Kcnc3 mutant channel revealed a complete loss of voltage-gated conductance, a broadening of the action potential, and decreased neuronal firing. Together, our findings have revealed a previously unrecognized role for Kcnc3 in learning and memory.

Cav3.2 T-type calcium channel-dependent gene expression after retrieval of context-associated memory (right hippocampus)

Project description:Among all voltage-gated calcium channels, the T-type Ca2+ channels encoded by the Cav3 genes are highly expressed in the hippocampus, which is associated with contextual, temporal and spatial learning and memory. However, the specific involvement of the Cav3.2 T-type Ca2+ channel in these hippocampus-dependent types of learning and memory remains unclear. To investigate the functional role of the 1H channel in learning and memory, we subjected Cav3.2 homozygous, heterozygous knockout and their wild-type littermates to hippocampus-dependent behavioral tasks, including trace fear conditioning (TFC), the Morris water-maze and passive avoidance. The Cav3.2-/- mice performed normally in the Morris water-maze and auditory trace fear conditioning tasks but were impaired in the context-cued trace fear conditioning, step-down and step-through passive avoidance tasks. Furthermore, long-term potentiation (LTP) could be induced for 180 minutes in hippocampal slices of WTs and Cav3.2+/- mice, whereas LTP persisted for only 120 minutes in Cav3.2-/- mice. To determine whether the hippocampal formation is responsible for the impaired behavioral phenotypes , we next performed experiments locally knock down function of the Cav3.2 T-type Ca2+ channel in the hippocampus. Wild-type mice infused with mibefradil exhibited similar behaviors as homozygous knockouts. Finally, microarray analyses indicated that Cav3.2-/- and WT mice presented distinct hippocampal transcriptome profiles. Taken together, our results demonstrate that retrieval of context-associated memory is dependent on the Cav3.2 T-type Ca2+ channel. After WT and Cav3.2 KO mice retrieval of context-associated memory, three right hippocampi of each group were dissected, pooled together and homogenized. The products of experimental and naive groups were used to acquire expression profiles of a total of 29,922 unique genes. Two replicates per group.

CCAT regulated gene expression

Project description:Voltage gated calcium channels play a central role in regulating the electrical and biochemical properties of neurons and muscle cells. Cells coordinate the expression of voltage gated calcium channels with the expression of other proteins that regulate membrane potential and calcium homeostasis. We report that the C-terminus of CaV 1.2, an L-type calcium channel (LTC) contains a C-terminal fragment that translocates to the nucleus and regulates transcription. This calcium channel associated transcription factor (CCAT) associates with transcriptional co-regulators such as p54nrb/NonO and binds to endogenous promoters. CCAT regulates the expression of gap junctions, sodium calcium exchangers, NMDA receptors, potassium channels and other proteins that regulate neuronal signaling. Electrical activity and developmental processes regulate the nuclear localization of CCAT, suggesting that the CCAT integrates information about the number of LTCs with information about the developmental history and electrical activity of a cell. These findings provide the first evidence that voltage gated calcium channels can directly activate transcription and suggest a novel mechanism linking voltage gated channels to the function and differentiation of excitable cells.

Expression profiling of ncRNAs with custom microarray of CaV 1.3 knockout mice compared to wild type mice

Project description:For screening mouse models for CNS diseases for changes in ncRNA expression, we first investigated two models with impaired voltage-gated Ca2+ channel activity, i.e. the lethargic mutant of the auxiliary calcium channel β4 subunit (Cacnb4lh; (Burgess et al. 1997)) and knockout mice for the L-type calcium channel CaV1.3 (Platzer et al. 2000), which have been implicated in a variety of neurological disorders such as psychiatric disorders (Cacnb4) or Parkinsons disease (Cav1.3).

Rat Brain LC-MS/MS - Quantitative Proteomics Reveals Protein-Protein Interactions with Fibroblast Growth Factor12 as a Component of the Nav1

Project description:Voltage-gated sodium channels are responsible for the initiation and propagation of action potentials in excitable cells. While the channel is functional on its own, it is the transient and stable protein-protein interactions that modulate functional outcomes. AP-MS has been successfully applied to a number of ion channels. However to the best of our knowledge, no AP-MS study has been carried out on any member of the voltage-gated sodium channel family.
