hERG potassium channel blockage by scorpion toxin BmKKx2 enhances erythroid differentiation of human leukemia cells K562. [PDF]
The hERG potassium channel can modulate the proliferation of the chronic myelogenous leukemic K562 cells, and its role in the erythroid differentiation of K562 cells still remains unclear.The hERG potassium channel blockage by a new 36-residue scorpion ...

Structural modeling of hERG channel–drug interactions using Rosetta
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) not only encodes a potassium-selective voltage-gated ion channel essential for normal electrical activity in the heart but is also a major drug anti-target.

Voltage-Dependent Gating of hERG Potassium Channels [PDF]
The mechanisms by which voltage-gated channels sense changes in membrane voltage and energetically couple this with opening of the ion conducting pore has been the source of significant interest. In voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels, much of our knowledge in this area comes from Shaker-type channels, for which voltage-dependent gating is quite ...

Inhibitory effects and mechanism of dihydroberberine on hERG channels expressed in HEK293 cells. [PDF]
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium channel conducts rapid delayed rectifier potassium currents (IKr) and contributes to phase III cardiac action potential repolarization.

An Insight into the Potassium Currents of hERG and Their Simulation
By assuming that a stepwise outward movement of the four S4 segments of the hERG potassium channel determines a concomitant progressive increase in the flow of the permeant potassium ions, the inward and outward potassium currents can be simulated by ...

Alprenolol Inhibits Herg Potassium Channels [PDF]
The action of alprenolol, a non-selective beta blocker as well as 5-HT receptor antagonist, on the cloned cardiac human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HERG) channels was investigated using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. Alprenolol reduced HERG whole-cell currents in a reversible concentration-dependent manner, with an IC50 value and a Hill ...
