1.A.1.4.9
The KC1 (KAT3) potassium channel-like subunit; regulates other channels such as AKT1 (1.A.1.4.1) and KAT1 (1.A.1.4.7) (Duby et al., 2008); may form heteromeric channels with AKT1 (Geiger et al., 2009). It forms a tripartite SNARE-K+ channel complex which regulates KAT3 channel opening (Honsbein et al., 2009).  Tripartite interactions with SNARE (SYP121; SYR1; PEN1) and AKT1 control gating (Grefen et al. 2010).  ZKC1 also forms homoleric channels in the endoplasmic reticulum (Nieves-Cordones et al. 2014).
