Protein Domain : Potassium channel KAT/AKT IPR045319

Type  Family
Description  Potassium (K+) is an essential nutrient for plant growth and development. This entry represents a group of potassium channel proteins from plants, including KAT1-3, SKOR, GORK and AKT1/2/5/6 from Arabidopsis [ ]. Together with AtHAK5, AKT1 mediates high-affinity K+ uptake into roots during seedling establishment and post-germination growth []. KAT1 is required for guard cell K+ uptake during light-induced stomatal opening []. AKT6, also known as SPIK, plays a role in K+ uptake in the growing pollen tube []. AKT1 has been shown to be regulated by the CBL1-CIPK23 complex [, ]. SKOR and GORK are both outward-rectifying potassium channels [, ].
