Drug-induced cardiotoxicity is a common side effect of drugs in clinical use or under postmarket surveillance and is commonly due to off-target interactions with the cardiac human-ether-a-go-go-related (hERG) potassium channel.

High-Throughput Chemical Screening and Structure-Based Models to Predict hERG Inhibition
Simple Summary Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for people of most ethnicities in the United States. The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium channel plays a pivotal role in cardiac rhythm regulation, and cardiotoxicity ...

Structure-Based Prediction of hERG-Related Cardiotoxicity: A Benchmark Study
Drug-induced blockade of the human ether-à-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel is today considered the main cause of cardiotoxicity in postmarketing surveillance.

HERG (Kv11.1, KCNH2) is a voltage-gated potassium channel with unique gating characteristics. HERG has fast voltage-dependent inactivation, relatively slow deactivation, and fast recovery from inactivation. This combination of gating kinetics makes study of HERG difficult without using mathematical models.

Mechanism of C-type inactivation in the hERG potassium channel
C-type inactivation in hERG is associated with an asymmetrical constricted-like conformation of the selectivity filter. The fast C-type inactivation displayed by the voltage-activated potassium channel hERG plays a critical role in the repolarization of ...

Investigation of the Influence of hERG 1b on hERG Channel Pharmacology [PDF]
hERG channels mediating the rapid delayed rectifier K+ current (IKr) are important for normal ventricular repolarization. In native cardiac tissues, hERG 1a subunit co-assembles with a subunit encoded by an alternate transcript, “ERG1b” which has a shorter N-terminus (1) and influences current kinetics (2).
