Potassium Channel
KcsA
Potassium channels are the most widely distributed type of ion channel and are found in virtually all living organisms. They form potassium-selective pores that span cell membranes. Potassium channels are found in most cell types and control a wide variety of cell functions. Potassium channels function to conduct potassium ions down their electrochemical gradient, doing so both rapidly and selectively. Biologically, these channels act to set or reset the resting potential in many cells. In excitable cells, such asneurons, the delayed counterflow of potassium ions shapes the action potential. By contributing to the regulation of the action potential duration in cardiac muscle, malfunction of potassium channels may cause life-threatening arrhythmias. Potassium channels may also be involved in maintaining vascular tone.

L17E
0 ImagesL17E is an attenuated cationic amphiphilic lytic (ACAL) peptide that can be used to deliver a variety of macromolecules, including proteins, antibodies, and DNA nanostructures. L17E inserts and cleaves the membrane structure through electrostatic interaction, enabling intracellular escape. The efficiency of L17E-mediated delivery is strongly correlated with the expression level of KCNN4 (the gene encoding the calcium-activated potassium channel KCa3.1). L17E also promotes the cellular uptake of macromolecules by inducing micropinocytosis. L17E can be further optimized and improved through dimerization strategies and in combination with other delivery systems, such as nuclear localization signal peptides and cell membrane-coated nanoparticles.
