Octameric

The K+ (ATP) channel exists as an octameric complex composed of four pore-forming α subunits (Kir6. 1/2), which have a RKR motif at the C-terminus and four sulphonylurea-binding β subunits (SUR1/2A/2B) with a RKR motif in the cytoplasmic loop. ❋ Parveen Sharma Et Al. (2010)

When correctly folded in its octameric form, the RKR motif in both subunits is masked and only then is the K ❋ Parveen Sharma Et Al. (2010)
