Voltage-sensing domain mode shift is coupled to the activation gate by the N-terminal tail of hERG channels

Human ether-a-go-go–related gene (hERG) potassium channels exhibit unique gating kinetics characterized by unusually slow activation and deactivation. The N terminus of the channel, which contains an amphipathic helix and an unstructured tail, has been shown to be involved in regulation of this slow...
