Electrochemical studies of the mitochondrial ROMK2 potassium channel activity reconstituted into the free-standing and tethered bilayer lipid membranes

dc.abstract.enThe renal-outer-medullary‑potassium (ROMK2) channel modulates potassium transport in the kidney. It has been postulated that the ROMK2 is the pore-forming subunit of the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel as a mediator of cardioprotection. In this study, cell-free synthesis of the ROMK2 was performed in presence of membrane scaffold protein (MSP1D1) nanodiscs. Activity measurements were achieved after channel reconstitution into the planar lipid bilayer and tethered bilayer lipid membranes. Both methods allowed for monitoring of channel function, verified with channel blocking and activation/re-activation experiments. The primary function of the mitochondrial potassium channels is to regulate the potential of the mitochondrial membrane, which allows them to play an important role in cytoprotection. This work focuses on obtaining the ROMK2 using a cell-free expression system, followed by the incorporation of the channel protein into the lipid bilayer and studying the influence of voltage changes and molecular modulators on channel activity. Channel activity was measured after its reconstitution into two models of lipid bilayers - BLM (Bilayer Lipid Membrane) and tBLM (Tethered Bilayer Lipid Membrane) deposited on a solid gold electrode. These two model membranes and electrochemical measurements made it possible to measure the flux of K+ ions in the presence of channel modulators.
