Syntaxin-1A Inhibits Cardiac ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels by Direct Interaction with Distinct Domains within Sulphonylurea Receptor 2A Nucleotide-Binding Folds

KATP channels couple cell metabolic status to the membrane excitability by sensing the cytoplasmic ATP/ADP ratio. Present studies examined how conserved motifs (Walker A (WA), signature sequence (L), and Walker B (WB)) within each NBF of SUR2A bind to Syn-1A to affect its actions on cardiac KATP cha...
