Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Voltage-gated Kv7 (potassium channel subfamily Q [KCNQ]) potassium channels are powerful modulators of neuronal excitability. ICA-069673 is a N-aryl benzamide drug that targets the voltage-sensing domain (VSD) of Kv7.2 with strong selectivity over Kv7.3 or Kv7.5, but the molecular basis of this selectivity remains poorly understood. Our objective was to identify novel sequence determinants...
