Mechanism of Rectification in Inward-rectifier K(+) Channels
Rectification in inward-rectifier K(+) channels is caused by the binding of intracellular cations to their inner pore. The extreme sharpness of this rectification reflects strong voltage dependence (apparent valence is ∼5) of channel block by long polyamines. To understand the mechanism by which pol...
