Abstract

Auxiliary Caβ subunits interact with the pore forming Caα subunit to promote the plasma membrane expression of high voltage-activated calcium channels and to modulate the biophysical properties of Ca currents. However, the effect of Caβ subunits on channel trafficking to and from the plasma membrane is still controversial. Here, we have investigated the impact of Caβ1b and Caβ2a subunits on plasma membrane trafficking of Ca1.2 using a live-labeling strategy. We show that the Caβ1b subunit is more potent in increasing Ca1.2 expression at the plasma membrane than the Caβ2a subunit and that this effect is not related to modification of intracellular trafficking of the channel (i.e. neither forward trafficking, nor recycling, nor endocytosis). We conclude that the differential effect of Caβ subunit subtypes on Ca1.2 surface expression is likely due to their differential ability to protect Ca1.2 from degradation.
