Single-Channel Characterisation of Potassium Channels with High Temperature Studies
Potassium channels control the conduction of K+ across cell membranes, down their electrochemical gradient. This rapid and highly selective movement of K+ is essential to many biological processes. K+ channels are largely alpha helical, tetrameric proteins that span the lipid bilayer. Diversity in K...
