Kv1.3 is a voltage-gated potassium channel mainly expressed at the plasma membrane and at the inner mitochondrial membrane of different cell types. A dual role for the channel has been suggested: Plasma ...
Styrczewska, Katarzyna (Date of defense: 2017-09-22)
Voltage-gated K channels (Kv) is large family of channels that are expressed in both excitable and non-excitable cells. In excitable cells they contribute to the control of resting membrane potential ...

Kv1.3 plays a crucial role in leukocytes, where it regulates activation and proliferation. In these cells, Kv1.3 is coexpressed with modulatory subunit KCNE4. This ancillary peptide acts as a dominant ...
Roig Merino, Sara Raquel (Date of defense: 2017-05-05)
Voltage-gated potassium channels are proteins that allow the flux of potassium ions across the plasma membrane in response to a voltage stimulus. Those proteins were initially described in nervous system ...
