Luminescence Resonance Energy Transfer Studies of the Shaker Potassium Voltage-Gated Ion Channel
"Members of the superfamily of voltage-gated ion channels are the molecular components underlying electrical excitability in nerves and muscle. Voltage-gated channels allow the selective flow of ions across the hydrophobic lipid bilayer of a cell, opening and closing in response to changes in the …

Exploring mechanisms of inhibition and inactivation in voltage-gated sodium channels using molecular simulations
Voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels play a pivotal role in the conduction of electrical signals across the human body, with different subtypes expressed across excitable tissue in the brain, heart and muscle. Nav channels transiently form transmembrane pores by cycling through the closed, open and …

Voltage Sensing Mechanism in the Voltage-gated and Proton (H+)-selective Ion Channel Hv1
<p>Activation of the intrinsic aqueous water-wire proton conductance (GAQ) in Hv1 channels is controlled by changes in membrane potential and the transmembrane pH gradient (ΔpH). The mechanism by which changes in ΔpH affect the apparent voltage dependence of GAQ activation is not understood. In …
