Abstract excerpt
Loss-of -function mutations in human ether-a-go-go-related gene 1 (hERG1) is associated with life-threatening arrhythmias. hERG1 activators are being developed as treatments for acquired or genetic forms of long QT syndrome. The locations of the putative binding pockets for activators are still being elucidated. In silico docking of the activator 1,3-bis-(2-hydroxy-5-trifluoromethylphenyl)-urea (NS1643) to an...
