Reduced temperature does not rescue Kv11.1-mut trafficking.

<p>A/B: Cells were incubated at 30°C for 24 h and total Kv11.1 protein was assessed by Western blot. Reduced temperature did not change the intensity of the protein band nor cause the appearance of a Kv11.1-mut mature protein band. Co-transfection of non-HA-tagged Kv11.1-wt and HA-Kv11.1-mut (1.0 µg wt+1.0 µg HA-mut; in lanes 3 and 7) allowed for the specific identification of Kv11.1-mut protein (A; anti-HA antibody) and Kv11.1-wt protein (B; anti-Kv11.1 C-terminal antibody). C: Peak current-voltage relationship for Kv11.1-mut alone at 37°C and 30°C revealed no change in current density (Kv11.1-mut at 37°C, 6.5±0.8 pA/pF, n = 15 versus Kv11.1-mut at 30°C, 8.8±0.9 pA/pF, n = 4). D: Peak tail current amplitude did not significantly change with reduced temperature (Kv11.1-mut at 37°C, −1.8±0.3 pA/pF, n = 15 versus Kv11.1-mut at 30°C, 2.1±2.0 pA/pF).
