basic FUNCTION
| fundamental in the control of smooth muscle tone and neuronal excitability |
|
regulating the excitability of Purkinje cells by contributing to afterhyperpolarizations and perhaps by shaping individual action potentials |
|
may be involved in the microbicidal process (Ahluwalia 2004) |
|
increasing the apparent Ca2+/voltage sensitivity of the KCNMA1 channel |
|
acting as a negative regulator of smooth muscle contraction by enhancing the calcium sensitivity to KCNMA1 |
|
required for internal binding of the KCNMA1 channel opener DHS-1 triterpene glycoside and for external binding of the agonist hormone 17-beta-estradiol |
|
increases the binding activity of CTX toxin to KCNMA1 peptide blocker |
