Abstract excerpt
The voltage-sensing domain (VSD) is a four-helix modular protein domain that converts electrical signals into conformational changes, leading to open pores and active enzymes. In most voltage-sensing proteins, the VSDs do not interact with one another, and the S1-S3 helices are considered mainly scaffolding, except in the voltage-sensing phosphatase (VSP) and the proton channel (Hv). To investigate its...
