Seeing spermine blocking of K(+) ion movement through inward rectifier Kir2.2 channels
Inwardly rectifier potassium (Kir) channels are a major potassium channel sub-class whose function is regulated by ligand-dependent gating and highly voltage-dependent block by polyamines. With molecular dynamics simulations over previously unattainable timescales, Jogini et al. (J. Gen. Physiol. ht...

description | Inwardly rectifier potassium (Kir) channels are a major potassium channel sub-class whose function is regulated by ligand-dependent gating and highly voltage-dependent block by polyamines. With molecular dynamics simulations over previously unattainable timescales, Jogini et al. (J. Gen. Physiol. https://doi.org/10.1085/jgp.202213085) provide unprecedented visualization of K(+) conduction through open Kir2.2 channels and of the molecular details of channel block by spermine. |
