Specificity of Charge-carrying Residues in the Voltage Sensor of Potassium Channels
Positively charged voltage sensors of sodium and potassium channels are driven outward through the membrane's electric field upon depolarization. This movement is coupled to channel opening. A recent model based on studies of the KvAP channel proposes that the positively charged voltage sensor,...
