1.A.1.3.6
Human outward rectifying potassium channel, Slo2.1 (also called KCNT2 and Slick) of 1135 aas. Produces rapidly activating outward rectifier K+ currents. Activated by high intracellular sodium and chloride levels. Channel activity is inhibited by ATP and by inhalation of anesthetics such as isofluraneInhibited upon stimulation of G-protein coupled receptors such as CHRM1 and GRIA1.  Orthologous to 1.A.1.3.4 (Garg et al. 2013) and can form a heteromeric complex with it and several other proteins (see TC# 1.A.1.3.4).  Hydrophobic interactions between residues in S5 and the C-terminal end of the pore helix stabilize Slo2.1 channels in a closed state (Suzuki et al. 2016). Despite their apparent high levels of expression, the activities of somatic KNa (Slo2.1 and Slo2.2) channels are tightly regulated by the activity of the Na+/K+ pump (Gray and Johnston 2021).
