Mechanisms Responsible for ω-Pore Currents in Ca(v) Calcium Channel Voltage-Sensing Domains

Mutations of positively charged amino acids in the S4 transmembrane segment of a voltage-gated ion channel form ion-conducting pathways through the voltage-sensing domain, named ω-current. Here, we used structure modeling and MD simulations to predict pathogenic ω-currents in Ca(V)1.1 and Ca(V)1.3 C...
