Interaction of a dinoflagellate neurotoxin with voltage-activated ion channels in a marine diatom

BACKGROUND: The potent neurotoxins produced by the harmful algal bloom species Karenia brevis are activators of sodium voltage-gated channels (VGC) in animals, resulting in altered channel kinetics and membrane hyperexcitability. Recent biophysical and genomic evidence supports widespread presence o...
