TbIRK is a signature sequence free potassium channel from Trypanosoma brucei locating to acidocalcisomes
Abstract Potassium channels from prokaryotes and eukaryotes are usually recognized by a typical amino acid sequence TXTGY(F)G representing the ionic selectivity filter. Using a screening approach with ion channel family profiles but without the above motif, we identified a gene in Trypanosoma brucei...
