Maxi-K channels consist of a pore-forming α subunit and a regulatory β subunit, which confers the channel with a higher Ca$^{2+}$ sensitivity. Estradiol bound to the β subunit and activated the Maxi-K channel (hSlo) only when both α and β subunits were present. This activation was independent of the generation of intracellular signals and could be...
