Na(+) Permeation and Block of hERG Potassium Channels

The inactivation gating of hERG channels is important for the channel function and drug–channel interaction. Whereas hERG channels are highly selective for K(+), we have found that inactivated hERG channels allow Na(+) to permeate in the absence of K(+). This provides a new way to directly monitor a...
