P-Loop Residues Critical for Selectivity in K(+) Channels Fail to Confer Selectivity to Rabbit HCN4 Channels

HCN channels are thought to be structurally similar to K(v) channels, but show much lower selectivity for K(+). The ∼3.3 Å selectivity filter of K(+) channels is formed by the pore-lining sequence XT(V/I)GYG, with X usually T, and is held stable by key residues in the P-loop. Differences in the P-lo...
