The voltage-gated proton channel, Hv1, is expressed in blood cells, airway epithelium, sperm and microglia, playing important roles in diverse biological contexts including phagocytosis or sperm maturation through its regulation of membrane potential and pH. The gene encoding Hv1, HVCN1, is widely found across many species and is also conserved in unicellular organisms such as algae or dinoflagellates where Hv1 plays role in calcification or bioluminescence. Voltage-gated proton channels exhibit a large variation of activation rate among different species. Here we identify an Hv1 ortholog from sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, SpHv1. SpHv1 retains most of key properties of Hv1 but exhibits 20-60 times more rapid activation kinetics than mammalian orthologs upon heterologous expression in HEK293T cells. Comparison between SpHv1 and mHv1 highlights novel roles of the third transmembrane segment S3 in activation gating of Hv1. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All tights reserved.
