Constitutive sodium permeability in a C. elegans two-pore domain potassium channel

Olga Andrini, Ismail Ben Soussia, Philippe Tardy…·Thomas Boulin

This study identifies a unique sodium permeability in the C. elegans K2P channel UNC-58, driven by an atypical cysteine residue in its selectivity filter, highlighting the need for functional experiments to understand sequence variations in potassium channels.
