Abstract

The cardiac IKs potassium channel is a macromolecular complex consisting of a-(KCNQ1) and {beta}-subunits (KCNE1) and the A kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) Yotiao (AKAP-9) which recruits protein kinase (PKA) and protein phosphatase (PP1) to the channel. Here we have tested the hypothesis that specific cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) isoforms of the PDE4D family that are expressed in the heart are also part of the IKs signaling complex and contribute to its regulation by cAMP. PDE4D isoforms co-immunoprecipitated with IKs channels in hearts of mice expressing the IKs channel. In myocytes isolated from these mice IKs was increased by pharmacological PDE inhibition. PDE4D3, but not PDE4D5, co-immunoprecipitated with the IKs channel only in CHO cells co-expressing AKAP-9, and PDE4D3, but not PDE4D5, co-immunoprecipitated with AKAP-9. Functional experiments in CHO cells expressing AKAP-9 and either PDE4D3 or PDE4D5 isoforms revealed modulation of the IKs response to cAMP by PDE4D3 but not PDE4D5. We conclude that PDE4D3, like PKA and PP1, is recruited to the IKs channel via AKAP-9 and contributes to its critical regulation by cAMP
