[HTML][HTML] Physiological roles of the intermediate conductance, Ca2+-activated potassium channel Kcnn4
Three broad classes of Ca 2+-activated potassium channels are defined by their respective
single channel conductances, ie the small, intermediate, and large conductance channels,
often termed the SK, IK, and BK channels, respectively. SK channels are likely encoded by
three genes, Kcnn1–3, whereas IK and most BK channels are most likely products of the
Kcnn4 and Slo (Kcnma1) genes, respectively. IK channels are prominently expressed in
cells of the hematopoietic system and in organs involved in salt and fluid transport, including …
