Putative Structural and Functional Coupling of the Mitochondrial BKCa Channel to the Respiratory Chain.
Potassium channels have been found in the inner mitochondrial membranes of various cells. These channels regulate the mitochondrial membrane potential, the matrix volume and respiration. The activation of these channels is cytoprotective. In our study, the single-channel activity of a large-conducta...
