Mining and analysis of new viral potassium channel proteins A structure and function study of new viral potassium channels from marine picoplankton and chlorella viruses
Many viruses, which infect algae, code for small membrane proteins with the characteristics of potassium channels. The peculiarity of these channels is that they have a monomer size of less than 100 amino acids. The structural simplicity and functional robustness of these miniature channels makes vi...
