Types of K+ Channels • Voltage-gated • Inward Rectifying • Ca2+ sensitive • ATP-sensitive • Mechano-sensitive • Type A • Receptor-coupled
1. Voltage-gated • 6 transmembrane domains • 4 subunits surround central pore (S5 & S6 regions of each subunit • Selectivity filter (P region) • Hydrophobic sequence between last 2 TMD; contains Gly-Tyr-Gly • Voltage sensor (S4) has multiple positively charged amino acids
Voltage-gated con’t • Activated by depolarization • Present in both excitable and nonexcitable cells • Functions • Regulate resting membrane potential • Control of the shape and frequency of action potentials

1. Three Types Ca2+ Sensitive K+ Channels • High conductance (BK) channels (Slo) • Gated by internal Ca2+ and membrane potential • Conductance = 100 to 220 picoSiemens (pS) • Blocked by charybdotoxin and iberiotoxin • Intermediate conductance (IK) channels (SK4) • Gated only by internal Ca2+ • More sensitive than BK channels • Conductance = 20 to 85 pS • Blocked by charybdotoxin • Small conductance (SK) channels (SK1-3) • Gated only by internal Ca2+ • More sensitive than BK channels • Conductance = 2 to 20 pS • Blocked by apamin
2. KATP channel • KATP ATP increase-decrease channel opening Pancreatic type or cardiac type • KNDP NDP increase-increase channel opening in the presence of Mg2+ smooth muscle type
KATP characteristics • Octameric four a-subunit (KIR6.1 or KIR6.2) four b-subunit (SUR1, SUR2A, SUR2B) • Smooth muscle type KIR6.2/SUR2B • Sulfonylurea agents-glibenclamide, tolbutamide inhibit channel activity • Pharmacological KATP activator pinacidil, cromakalim, lemakalim, diazoxide, minoxidil, nicorandil (induce hyperpolarization)

3. Inwardly Rectifying K+ Channel (KIR) • 2 transmembrane regions (M1 & M2) • Corresponds to S5 & S6 in Kv channel • 4 subunits surround central pore • P region separates M1 and M2 • Non-conducting at positive membrane potentials • Maintains resting membrane potential near Ek • Blocked by external Ba++ • Mainly Kir2x

5. A-TYPE CURRENTS IN SMOOTH MUSCLE Voltage-dependent, transient outward K+ currents have also been identified in smooth muscle cells. The term A-type current to designate rapidly activating, inactivating, voltage-dependent K+ currents. In vascular smooth muscle cells of the rabbit (portal vein, pulmonary artery, aorta), rat (pulmonary artery, renal resistance artery), and human (mesenteric artery). In genitourinary (GU) smooth muscle cells of the guinea pig (ureter, seminal vesicles, and vas deferens), rabbit (vas deferens), rat (myometrium), and human (myometrium). Ingastrointestinal (GI) smooth muscle cells of the mouse (fundus, antrum, jejunum, and colon), rat (ileum), guinea pig (colon), and opossum (esophagus
General properties of A-type K+ currents. A: whole cell A-type currents from holding potentials of -80 (a) and 40 mV (b) recorded from mouse antral myocytes. B: steady-state inactivation shown as a plot of normalized peak current (I/Imax) as a function of conditioning potential and fit with a Boltzmann function.
