A new mechanism of voltage-dependent gating exposed by K(V)10.1 channels interrupted between voltage sensor and pore

Voltage-gated ion channels couple transmembrane potential changes to ion flow. Conformational changes in the voltage-sensing domain (VSD) of the channel are thought to be transmitted to the pore domain (PD) through an α-helical linker between them (S4–S5 linker). However, our recent work on channels...
