The essential function of potassium channels is to selectively facilitate the passage of K+ ions across the cell membrane by lowering the energy barrier that opposes this process. In this issue of Neuron, Chatelain et al. report the results from an elegant study that sheds new light on the microscopic factors that modulate the function of these important membrane channels
