Abstract

Ion channels can tailor their activity to the particular cellular context by incorporating auxiliary subunits that are channel-type specific. In this issue of Cell, Avalos Prado et al. now find that a well-characterized voltage-gated K+ channel auxiliary subunit can also modulate the gating of Ca2+-activated Cl- channels.
