Outward Rectification of Voltage-Gated K+ Channels Evolved at Least Twice in Life History.

Voltage-gated potassium (K+) channels are present in all living systems. Despite high structural similarities in the transmembrane domains (TMD), this K+ channel type segregates into at least two main functional categories-hyperpolarization-activated, inward-rectifying (Kin) and depolarization-activ...
