Inward and outward potassium currents through the same chimeric human Kv channel.

Abstract excerpt

Voltage-gated ion channels are among the most intensely studied membrane proteins today and a variety of techniques has led to a basic mapping of functional roles onto specific regions of their structure. The architecture of the proteins appears to be modular and segments associated with voltage sensing and the pore lining have been identified. However, the means by which movement of the sensor is transduced into...
