Potassium Channels in Excitable and Non-excitable Cells

  • Chapter
Special Issue on Ionic Channels II

Part of the book series: Reviews of Physiology Biochemistry and Pharmacology ((REVIEWS,volume 115 ))

Abstract

Potassium channels play a crucial role in determining the resting membrane potential, time course, amplitude and polarity of electrical changes in most types of cells. At rest the membrane potential of a typical cell is positive to the potassium equilibrium potential (E K). When K+ channels are activated and open, the cell hyperpolarizes and the opening probability of depolarization-dependent calcium and sodium channels is reduced.
