Abstract excerpt
Four members of the tandem-pore potassium channel family of Arabidopsis thaliana (TPK1, 2, 3, and 5) reside in the vacuolar membrane, whereas TPK4 is a plasma membrane K(+)-channel. By constructing chimeras between TPK1 and TPK4, we attempted to identify channel domains involved in the trafficking process and found that the TPK1 cytoplasmic C-terminal domain (CT) is critical for the ER- as well as Golgi-sorting...
