Selective toxicity of the anthelmintic emodepside revealed by heterologous expression of human KCNMA1 in caenorhabditis elegans

Emodepside is a resistance-breaking anthelmintic of a new chemical class, the cyclooctadepsipeptides. A major determinant of its anthelmintic effect is the calcium-activated potassium channel, SLO-1. SLO-1 belongs to a family of channels that are highly conserved across the animal phyla and regulate...
