Pineda R, Knoeckel C, Taylor A, Estrada-Bernal A, Ribera A
J Neurophysiol . 2008 Aug; 100(4):2125-36. PMID: 18684900
Whereas Kvbeta2 subunits modulate potassium current properties carried by Kv1 channel complexes in heterologous systems, little is known about the contributions of Kvbeta2 subunits to native potassium channel function. Using...

Gravagna N, Knoeckel C, Taylor A, Hultgren B, Ribera A
J Comp Neurol . 2008 Aug; 510(5):508-24. PMID: 18680201
Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels sculpt neuronal excitability and play important developmental roles. Kv channels consist of pore-forming alpha- and auxiliary subunits. For many Kv alpha-subunits, existing mRNA probes and antibodies...

Pineda R, Svoboda K, Wright M, Taylor A, Novak A, Gamse J, et al.
Development . 2006 Sep; 133(19):3827-36. PMID: 16943272
In addition to rapid signaling, electrical activity provides important cues to developing neurons. Electrical activity relies on the function of several different types of voltage-gated ion channels. Whereas voltage-gated Ca2+...

Novak A, Jost M, Lu Y, Taylor A, Zakon H, Ribera A
J Mol Evol . 2006 Jul; 63(2):208-21. PMID: 16830092
Voltage-gated sodium channels underlie action potential generation in excitable tissue. To establish the evolutionary mechanisms that shaped the vertebrate sodium channel alpha-subunit (SCNA) gene family and their encoded Nav1 proteins,...

Novak A, Taylor A, Pineda R, Lasda E, Wright M, Ribera A
Dev Dyn . 2006 Apr; 235(7):1962-73. PMID: 16615064
Whereas it is known that voltage-gated calcium channels play important roles during development, potential embryonic roles of voltage-gated sodium channels have received much less attention. Voltage-gated sodium channels consist of...

Blaine J, Taylor A, Ribera A
J Neurophysiol . 2004 Aug; 92(6):3446-54. PMID: 15306626
Molecular mechanisms underlying the acquisition of stable electrical phenotypes in developing neurons remain poorly defined. As Xenopus embryonic spinal neurons mature, they initially exhibit dramatic changes in excitability due to...

Lazaroff M, Taylor A, Ribera A
J Physiol . 2002 Jun; 541(Pt 3):673-83. PMID: 12068032
Kv1 potassium channels consist of pore-forming alpha subunits as well as auxiliary beta subunits. In heterologous systems, Kv1alpha subunits suffice for induction of voltage-dependent potassium current (I(Kv)). Although Kv1 channels...
