Abstract excerpt
Voltage-gated ion channels (VGICs) are associated with hundreds of human diseases. To date, 3D structural models of human VGICs have not been reported. We developed a 3D structural integrity metric to rank the accuracy of all VGIC structures deposited in the PDB. The metric revealed inaccuracies in structural models built from recent single-particle, non-crystalline cryo-electron microscopy maps and enabled the...
