Voltage sensors, toxins & membranes : a simulation study

Molecular dynamics (MO) simulations were used to study the interaction of voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channel toxins with lipid bilayers. The toxins studied were YSTx1 (Yoltage Sensor Toxin 1) and SGTx1 (Seodm griseipes Toxin 1), gating-modifier toxins from tarantula venom that bind to the voltage...
