Gating and Ionic Currents Reveal How the BK(Ca) Channel's Ca(2+) Sensitivity Is Enhanced by its β1 Subunit
Large-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels (BK(Ca) channels) are regulated by the tissue-specific expression of auxiliary β subunits. β1 is predominately expressed in smooth muscle, where it greatly enhances the BK(Ca) channel's Ca(2+) sensitivity, an effect that is required for proper re...
