In heterologous cells, DPP6 and DPP10 can interact with all three Kv4 proteins, however, in-situ hybridization studies showed that the two DPPL genes tended to be expressed in different neurons, with neuronal populations expressing mainly Kv4.2 containing DPP6 mRNAs, while DPP10 was the predominant DPPL in cells expressing Kv4.3, although exceptions to this pattern were noted (Nadal et al., 2006; Zagha et al., 2005). | |||||||||||||||

As discussed earlier, the analysis of mRNA distribution suggests that instead, the Kv4 channels in these neurons are mainly associated with DPP10 (Zagha et al., 2005). | |||||||||||||||

First, the finding that DPP6 and DPP10 associate and modulate Kv4 channels is surprising, since all other known DPPs are enzymes and there is no precedent for these proteins functioning as modulators of other membrane proteins. | |||||||||||||||
