Function |
Auxiliary protein of the large-conductance, voltage and calcium-activated potassium channel (BK alpha). Modulates gating properties by producing a marked shift in the BK channel's voltage dependence of activation in the hyperpolarizing direction, and in the absence of calcium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22547800}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Mainly expressed in adrenal gland, thymus and skeletal muscle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22547800}.
