Gene splicing of an invertebrate beta subunit (LCavβ) in the N-terminal and HOOK domains and its regulation of LCav1 and LCav2 calcium channels.
The accessory beta subunit (Ca(v)β) of calcium channels first appear in the same genome as Ca(v)1 L-type calcium channels in single-celled coanoflagellates. The complexity of this relationship expanded in vertebrates to include four different possible Ca(v)β subunits (β1, β2, β3, β4) which associate...

The accessory beta subunit (Ca(v)β) of calcium channels first appear in the same genome as Ca(v)1 L-type calcium channels in single-celled coanoflagellates. The complexity of this relationship expanded in vertebrates to include four different possible Ca(v)β subunits (β1, β2, β3, β4) which associate with four Ca(v)1 channel isoforms (Ca(v)1.1 to Ca(v)1.4) and three Ca(v)2 channel isoforms (Ca(v)2.1 to Ca(v)2.3). Here we assess the fundamentally-shared features of the Ca(v)β subunit in an invertebrate model (pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis) that bears only three homologous genes: (LCa(v)1, LCa(v)2, and LCa(v)β). Invertebrate Ca(v)β subunits (in flatworms, snails, squid and honeybees) slow the inactivation kinetics of Ca(v)2 channels, and they do so with variable N-termini and lacking the canonical palmitoylation residues of the vertebrate β2a subunit. Alternative splicing of exon 7 of the HOOK domain is a primary determinant of a slow inactivation kinetics imparted by the invertebrate LCa(v)β subunit. LCa(v)β will also slow the inactivation kinetics of LCa(v)3 T-type channels, but this is likely not physiologically relevant in vivo. Variable N-termini have little influence on the voltage-dependent inactivation kinetics of differing invertebrate Ca(v)β subunits, but the expression pattern of N-terminal splice isoforms appears to be highly tissue specific.
