The directed movement of potassium ions out of a cell or organelle. The directed, energized, high affinity movement of potassium ions into a cell or organelle, driven by cation symport with hydrogen or sodium ions. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of potassium ions (K+) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of potassium ions (K+) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of potassium ions into a cell or organelle. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of potassium ions (K+) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of potassium ions (K+) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of metal ions, any metal ion with an electric charge, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of cations, atoms or small molecules with a net positive charge, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of inorganic cations with a valency of one into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Inorganic cations are atoms or small molecules with a positive charge which do not contain carbon in covalent linkage.
