A Common Structural Component for β-Subunit Mediated Modulation of Slow Inactivation in Different KV Channels

Background/Aims: Potassium channels are tetrameric proteins providing potassium selective passage through lipid embedded proteinaceous pores with highest fidelity. The selectivity results from binding to discrete potassium binding sites and stabilization of a hydrated potassium ion in a central inte...
