Ulens C, Tytgat J
Abstract excerpt
The S631C mutation in human ether-à-go-go-related gene (HERG) channels has previously been reported to disrupt C-type inactivation and ion-selectivity when Cys-631 is in the oxidized state. In this study, we report the relation between pharmacology and C-type inactivation for HERGS631C channels. We demonstrate that HERGS631C in its reduced state is fully blocked by 1 microM astemizole, terfenadine and dofetilide,...
