Gene : GORK A. thaliana

DB identifier  ? AT5G37500 Secondary Identifier  ? locus:2169866
Name  ? gated outwardly-rectifying K channel Brief Description  gated outwardly-rectifying K channel
TAIR Computational Description  gated outwardly-rectifying K+ channel;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary  Encodes a guard cell outward potassium channel. Belongs to the Shaker family K+ channel. This family includes five groups based on phylogenetic analysis (FEBS Letters (2007) 581: 2357): I (inward rectifying channel): AKT1 (AT2G26650), AKT5 (AT4G32500) and SPIK (also known as AKT6, AT2G25600); II (inward rectifying channel): KAT1 (AT5G46240) and KAT2 (AT4G18290); III (weakly inward rectifying channel): AKT2 (AT4G22200); IV (regulatory subunit involved in inwardly rectifying conductance formation): KAT3 (also known as AtKC1, AT4G32650); V (outward rectifying channel): SKOR (AT3G02850) and GORK (AT5G37500). Mutants have increased water consumption and limited stomatal closure in response to abscisic and jasmonic acids. It forms a heteromeric K(out) channels with SKOR. The gene is expressed ubiquitously in root and the vasculature and guard cells of leaves. Expression is suppressed during agrobacterium-induced tumor formation and increased in response to water deprivation and cold.

Type Comment Proteins
GORK_ARATH function Major selective outward-rectifying potassium channel of the guard cell membrane. Involved in regulation of stomatal movements according to the water status. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the channel is activated by depolarization. Conductance of the channel is modulated in a potassium-dependent fashion. May interact with the cytoskeleton or with regulatory proteins.
A0A1P8BFX1_ARATH A0A1P8BG02_ARATH A0A1P8BFX8_ARATH function Potassium channel.
A0A1P8BFX1_ARATH GORK_ARATH A0A1P8BG02_ARATH A0A1P8BFX8_ARATH similarity Belongs to the potassium channel family. Plant (TC 1.A.1.4) subfamily.
GORK_ARATH tissue specificity Expressed in guard cell-containing tissues, in root epidermal cells and in root hairs. Detected in vascular cells of the root and shoot.
