Identification of the high-affinity tolbutamide site on the SUR1 subunit of the K(ATP) channel.

ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K(ATP)) are formed from four pore-forming Kir6.2 subunits complexed with four regulatory sulfonylurea receptor subunits (SUR1 in pancreatic beta-cells, SUR2A in heart). The sensitivity of the channel to different sulfonylureas depends on the SUR isoform. In particul...
