Multiscale modeling shows that dielectric differences make Na(V) channels faster than K(V) channels
The generation of action potentials in excitable cells requires different activation kinetics of voltage-gated Na (Na(V)) and K (K(V)) channels. Na(V) channels activate much faster and allow the initial Na(+) influx that generates the depolarizing phase and propagates the signal. Recent experimental...
