== Function ==
[[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SLO_DROME SLO_DROME]] Potassium channel activated by both membrane depolarization or increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) that mediates export of K(+). Its activation dampens the excitatory events that elevate the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration and/or depolarize the cell membrane. It therefore contributes to repolarization of the membrane potential. Kinetics are determined by alternative splicing, phosphorylation status and its combination interaction with Slob and 14-3-3-zeta. While the interaction with Slob1 alone increases its activity, its interaction with both Slob1 and 14-3-3-zeta decreases its activity.<ref>PMID:1497890</ref> <ref>PMID:1857984</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Slowpoke (Slo) potassium channels display extraordinarily high conductance, are synergistically activated by a positive transmembrane potential and high intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations and are important targets for insecticides and antiparasitic drugs. However, it is unknown how these compounds modulate ion translocation and whether there are insect-specific binding pockets. Here, we report structures of Drosophila Slo in the Ca(2+)-bound and Ca(2+)-free form and in complex with the fungal neurotoxin verruculogen and the anthelmintic drug emodepside. Whereas the architecture and gating mechanism of Slo channels are conserved, potential insect-specific binding pockets exist. Verruculogen inhibits K(+) transport by blocking the Ca(2+)-induced activation signal and precludes K(+) from entering the selectivity filter. Emodepside decreases the conductance by suboptimal K(+) coordination and uncouples ion gating from Ca(2+) and voltage sensing. Our results expand the mechanistic understanding of Slo regulation and lay the foundation for the rational design of regulators of Slo and other voltage-gated ion channels.
