Abstract excerpt
We have tested the hypothesis that a high density of negative charge at the luminal mouth of the RyR2 pore plays a pivotal role in the high cation conductance and limited selectivity observed in this channel by introducing into each monomer a double point mutation to neutralize acidic residues in...
