Representative schematic of BKCa channel subunits
Description
From left to right: BKα subunit, with its 7 TM segments making the voltage sensory domain, and pore forming motif at N-terminus, and RCK domains at C-terminus. BKβ auxiliary subunit with its extracellular loop, and two TMs segments. BKγ with its TM segment, and extracellular LRR motif. S: Segment; RCK: Regulator of K+ conductance.
