英文摘要The TASK-3 channel is a member of the K2P family that is important for the maintenance of the resting membrane potential. Previous studies have demonstrated that the TASK-3 channel is involved in several physiologic and pathologic processes, including sleep/wake control, cognition, and epilepsy. However, there is still a lack of selective pharmacological tools for TASK-3, which limits further research on channel function. In this work, using a high-throughput screen, we discovered that N-(2-((4-nitro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-amino)ethyl) benzamide (NPBA) showed excellent potency and selectivity as a novel TASK-3 activator. The molecular determinants of NPBA activation were then investigated by combining chimera and mutagenesis analysis. Two distant clusters of residues located at the extracellular end of the second transmembrane domain (A105 and A108) and the intracellular end of the third transmembrane domain (E157) were found to be critical for NPBA activation. We then compared the essentials of the actions of NPBA with inhalation anesthetics that nonselectively activate TASK-3 and found that they may activate TASK-3 channels through different mechanisms. Finally, we transplanted the three residues A105, A108, and E157 into the TASK-1 channel, which resists NPBA activation, and the constructed mutant TASK-1(G105A, V108A, A157E) showed dramatically increased activation by NPBA, confirming the importance of these two distant clusters of residues. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT TASK-3 channels conduct potassium and are involved in various physiological and pathological processes. However, the lack of selective modulators has hindered efforts to increase our understanding of the physiological roles of TASK-3 channels. By using a high-throughput screen, we identified NPBA as a potent and selective TASK-3 activator, and we show that NPBA is a more potent activator than terbinafine, the only reported TASK-3 selective activator to date. We also show here that NPBA has outstanding selectivity for TAS-3 channels. These characteristics make NPBA a promising pharmacological probe for research focused on defining TASK-3 channel function(s). In addition, we identified two distant clusters of residues as determinants of NPBA activation providing new molecular clues for the understanding of the gating mechanism of K2P channels.
