Abstract excerpt
Voltage-sensor domains (VSDs) in voltage-gated ion channels are thought to regulate the probability that a channel adopts an open conformation by moving vertically in the lipid bilayer. Here we characterized the movement of the VSDs of the prokaryotic voltage-gated sodium channel, NaChBac. Substi...
