1.A.1.3.4
The one or two component intracellularly Na+ and Cl--activated delayed rectifier K+ channel, rSlo2.2 (Slack; KCNT1)/r Slo2.1 (Slick; KCNT2; TC# 1.A.1.3.6) provides protection against ischemia (Yuan et al., 2003). The N-terminal domain of Slack determines the formation and trafficking of Slick/Slack heteromeric sodium-activated potassium channels (Chen et al., 2009). Slick and Slack can also form separate homooligomeric channels. These channels are widely distributed in the mammalian CNS and they play roles in slow afterhyperpolarization, generation of depolarizing afterpotentials and in setting and stabilizing the resting potential (Rizzi et al. 2015). The small cytoplasmic protein beta-synuclein TC# 1.C.77.1.2) and the transmembrane protein 263 (TMEM 263; TC# 8.A.101.1.1) are interaction partners of both Slick and Slack channels. The inactive dipeptidyl-peptidase (DPP 10) and the synapse associated protein 102 (SAP 102) are constituents of the Slick and Slack channel complexes (Rizzi et al. 2015).
