PLoS One . 2022 Jun; 17(6):e0268335. PMID: 35679272
Hyperpolarization activated cyclic nucleotide-gated channel 1 (HCN1) is expressed throughout the nervous system and is critical for regulating neuronal excitability, with mutations being associated with multiple forms of epilepsy. Adaptive...

Lankford C, Umino Y, Poria D, Kefalov V, Solessio E, Baker S
J Neurosci . 2022 Apr; 42(21):4231-4249. PMID: 35437278
Signal integration of converging neural circuits is poorly understood. One example is in the retina where the integration of rod and cone signaling is responsible for the large dynamic range...

Hum Mol Genet . 2021 Oct; 31(7):1035-1050. PMID: 34652420
Heteromeric Kv2.1/Kv8.2 channels are voltage-gated potassium channels localized to the photoreceptor inner segment. They carry IKx, which is largely responsible for setting the photoreceptor resting membrane potential. Mutations in Kv8.2...

Maddox J, Randall K, Yadav R, Williams B, Hagen J, Derr P, et al.
Elife . 2020 Sep; 9. PMID: 32940604
Synapses are fundamental information processing units that rely on voltage-gated Ca (Ca) channels to trigger Ca-dependent neurotransmitter release. Ca channels also play Ca-independent roles in other biological contexts, but whether...

Laird J, Gardner S, Kopel A, Kerov V, Lee A, Baker S
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci . 2019 Jul; 60(8):3150-3161. PMID: 31335952
Purpose: Cav1.4 is a voltage-gated calcium channel clustered at the presynaptic active zones of photoreceptors. Cav1.4 functions in communication by mediating the Ca2+ influx that triggers neurotransmitter release. It also...
