Abstract
⺠Coexpression of β-catenin increased voltage-gated kV current in Kv1.5 expressing oocytes. ⺠The effect was not dependent on the stimulation of transcription. ⺠β-catenin enhances the membrane abundance of Kv1.5. ⺠β-catenin fosters insertion of Kv1.5 protein into the plasma membrane. ⺠The effect on Kv1.5 requires the same protein domains that are required for association of β-catenin with cadherin.
