The auxiliary subunit KCNE1 regulates KCNQ1 channel response to sustained calcium-dependent PKC activation.
The slow cardiac delayed rectifier current (IKs) is formed by KCNQ1 and KCNE1 subunits and is one of the major repolarizing currents in the heart. Decrease of IKs currents either due to inherited mutations or pathological remodeling is associated with increased risk for cardiac arrhythmias and sudde...
