Abstract excerpt
Inherited mutations or drug-induced block of voltage-gated ion channels, including the human ether-à-go-go-related gene (HERG) K+ channel, are significant causes of malignant arrhythmias and sudden death. The fourth transmembrane domain (S4) of these channels contains multiple positive charges th...
