We also highlight our recent discovery about electrosensing: Voltage-Sensitive Phosphatase 1 (VSP1) acts as an electrosensor during electrotaxis, guiding migrating cells under endogenous electric fields in vivo.
#VSP1 #Electrotaxis
... our findings about the role of #Vsp1 are relevant, as such a highly SPECIFIC type of #electrosensor was a missing piece in #electrotaxis we also provide a list of cells in which #Vsp1 is expressed... let's explore its potential :)
Furthermore, we screened for candidate sensors of these currents and discovered that while NOT being required for #cellmotility or #chemotaxis ! #VSP1 works as a SPECIFIC #electrosensor which translates electric fields into directed motion in vivo... (#electrotaxis)
