Local Anesthetics Disrupt Energetic Coupling between the Voltage-sensing Segments of a Sodium Channel
Local anesthetics block sodium channels in a state-dependent fashion, binding with higher affinity to open and/or inactivated states. Gating current measurements show that local anesthetics immobilize a fraction of the gating charge, suggesting that the movement of voltage sensors is modified when a...
