Peptide Synthesis> | The peptide encoding FixR-cpp was chemically synthesized by Genscript (98% purity) to contain the cell permeating viral TAT sequence in the amino-terminus: YGRKKRRQRRRAAAIASS LIRQKRQARESNSERVSASKRRSSPSKG. The amino-terminus of the peptide contained a FITC fluorophore to visualize cell uptake. | Get A Quote |
Voltage-gated sodium (Nav1.5) channels support the genesis and brisk spatial propagation of action potentials in the heart. Disruption of Na1.5 inactivation results in a small persistent Na influx known as late Na current ( ), which has emerged as a common pathogenic mechanism in both congenital and acquired cardiac arrhythmogenic syndromes. Here, using low-noise multi-channel recordings in heterologous systems, LQTS3 patient-derived iPSCs cardiomyocytes, and mouse ventricular myocytes, we demonstrate that the intracellular fibroblast growth factor homologous factors (FHF1-4) tune pathogenic in an isoform-specific manner. This scheme suggests a complex orchestration of in cardiomyocytes that may contribute ... More
