CATEGORY

transport channel

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION

plasma membrane

basic FUNCTION	target of neurotransmitter action
	exhibits two primary modes of gating that give rise to two channel phenotypes under dephosphorylated conditions, and its phosphorylation shifts the gating mode to include intermediate conducting levels
	KCNK2, KCNK10 are potently activated by polyunsaturated fatty acids and are involved in neuroprotection, anesthesia, and pain perception

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

text	potassium channel
	passive transporter

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

neurotransmission , signal transduction

a component

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule	other,
	zinc activated

protein	neurotransmitter receptors
	KCNK2, KCNK4, KCNK10 interact with partner proteins that influence their activity and their plasma membrane expression
	hyperpolarizes IB4 binding C-nociceptors and limits pathological spontaneous pain

cell & other

REGULATION

activated by	polyinsaturated fatty acids lysophospholipids,anesthetic chloroform,halothane,riluzole
	Gs,Gi,Gy protein coupled receptors
	arachidonic acid,membrane stretching,intracellular acidification

Other

mechadosensitive channel
