    Abstract Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are proton-gated cation channels widely expressed in the nervous system. ASIC gating is modulated by divalent cations as well as small molecules; however, the molecular determinants of gating modulation by divalent cations are not well understood. Previously, we identified two small molecules that bind to ASIC1a at a novel site in the acidic pocket and modulate ASIC1 gating in a manner broadly resembling divalent cations, raising the possibility that these small molecules may help to illuminate the molecular determinants of gating modulation by divalent cations. Here, we examined how these two groups of modulators might interact as well as mutational effects on ASIC1a gating and its modulation by divalent cations. Our results indicate that binding of divalent cations to an acidic pocket site plays a key role in gating modulation of the channel.

    Abstract Acid-Sensing Ion Channels (ASICs) are gated by extracellular protons and play important roles in physiological and pathological states, such as pain and stroke. ASIC1a and ASIC2a, two of the most highly expressed subunits in the brain, form functional homo- and hetero-meric (ASIC1a/2a) channels. The function of ASIC1a has been widely studied using psalmotoxin (PcTx1), a venom-derived peptide, as an ASIC1a-selective antagonist. Here, using whole-cell patch clamp, we show that PcTx1 has dual actions at ASIC1a/2a. It can either inhibit or potentiate the heteromeric channel, depending on the conditioning and stimulating pHs. Potent inhibition occurs only at conditioning pHs that begin to desensitize the channel (IC

    Abstract Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are proton-gated cation channels critical for neuronal functions. Studies of ASIC1, a major ASIC isoform and proton sensor, have identified acidic pocket, an extracellular region enriched in acidic residues, as a key participant in channel gating. While binding to this region by the venom peptide psalmotoxin modulates channel gating, molecular and structural mechanisms of ASIC gating modulation by small molecules are poorly understood. Here, combining functional, crystallographic, computational and mutational approaches, we show that two structurally distinct small molecules potently and allosterically inhibit channel activation and desensitization by binding at the acidic pocket and stabilizing the closed state of rat/chicken ASIC1. Our work identifies a previously unidentified binding site, elucidates a molecular mechanism of small molecule modulation of ASIC gating, and demonstrates directly the structural basis of such modulation, providing mechanistic and structural insight into ASIC gating, modulation and therapeutic targeting.

    Abstract The rate and timing of information transfer at neuronal synapses are critical for determining synaptic efficacy and higher network function. Both synchronous and asynchronous neurotransmitter release shape the pattern of synaptic influences on a neuron. The PSD-95 family of postsynaptic scaffolding proteins, in addition to organizing postsynaptic components at glutamate synapses, acts transcellularly to regulate synchronous glutamate release. Here we show that PSD-95 family members at nicotinic synapses on chick ciliary ganglion neurons in culture execute multiple functions to enhance transmission. Together, endogenous PSD-95 and SAP102 in the postsynaptic cell appear to regulate transcellularly the synchronous release of transmitter from presynaptic terminals onto the neuron while stabilizing postsynaptic nicotinic receptor clusters under the release sites. Endogenous SAP97, in contrast, has no effect on receptor clusters but acts transcellularly from the postsynaptic cell through N-cadherin to enhance asynchronous release. These separate and parallel regulatory pathways allow postsynaptic scaffold proteins to dictate the pattern of cholinergic input a neuron receives; they also require balancing of PSD-95 protein levels to avoid disruptive competition that can occur through common binding domains.
