Abstract excerpt
Small-conductance Ca2+-activated potassium channels (SK(Ca) channels) are heteromeric complexes of pore-forming main subunits and constitutively bound calmodulin. SK(Ca) channels in neuronal cells are activated by intracellular Ca2+ that increases during action potentials, and their ionic currents have been considered to underlie neuronal afterhyperpolarization. However, the ion selectivity of neuronal SK(Ca)...
