Potassium large conductance calcium-activated channel, subfamily M, alpha 1
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
| edit |
Potassium large conductance calcium-activated channel, subfamily M, alpha member 1 (KCa1.1) is a voltage gated ion channel encoded by the KCNMA1 gene.[1]
KCa1.1 channels are large conductance, voltage and calcium-sensitive potassium channels which are fundamental to the control of smooth muscle tone and neuronal excitability. KCa1.1 channels can be formed by 2 subunits: the pore-forming alpha subunit, which is the product of the KCNMA1 gene, and the modulatory beta subunit. Intracellular calcium regulates the physical association between the alpha and beta subunits. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.[1]
