Activation and inhibition of K-ATP currents by guanine nucleotides is mediated by different channel subunits

The ATP-sensitive potassium channel (K-ATP channel) plays a key role in insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. It is closed by glucose metabolism, which stimulates secretion, and opened by the drug diazoxide, which inhibits insulin release. Metabolic regulation is mediated by changes in ATP and...
