Abstract
In higher plants the vacuolar K(+)-selective (VK) channel was identified solely in guard cells. This patch-clamp study describes a 40 pS homologue of the VK channel in Beta vulgaris taproot vacuoles. This voltage-independent channel is activated by submicromolar Ca(2+), and is ideally selective for K(+) over Cl(-) and Na(+).Entities:
