Abstract excerpt

The BK channel is a Ca²+- and voltage-gated potassium channel with many important physiological functions. To identify proteins important to its function in vivo, we screened for Caenorhabditis elegans mutants that suppressed a lethargic phenotype caused by expressing a gain-of-function (gf) isoform of the BK channel α-subunit SLO-1. BKIP-1 (for BK channel interacting protein), a small peptide with no significant...
