The Kv10.1 voltage-gated ion channel modeling based on control system theory
In this paper, we present a control system theory based modeling approach for the voltage-gated ion-channel Kv10.1 at different temperatures. Kv10.1 is expressed in the central nervous system and the brain of healthy humans.

Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels [PDF]
Voltage-gated calcium (Ca(2+)) channels are key transducers of membrane potential changes into intracellular Ca(2+) transients that initiate many physiological events. There are ten members of the voltage-gated Ca(2+) channel family in mammals, and they serve distinct roles in cellular signal transduction.

Studies of Conorfamide-Sr3 on Human Voltage-Gated Kv1 Potassium Channel Subtypes
Recently, Conorfamide-Sr3 (CNF-Sr3) was isolated from the venom of Conus spurius and was demonstrated to have an inhibitory concentration-dependent effect on the Shaker K+ channel.

Role of the C-terminal domain in the structure and function of tetrameric sodium channels [PDF]
Voltage-gated sodium channels have essential roles in electrical signalling. Prokaryotic sodium channels are tetramers consisting of transmembrane (TM) voltage-sensing and pore domains, and a cytoplasmic carboxy-terminal domain.

Can the Thermodynamic Hodgkin-Huxley Model of Voltage-Dependent Conductance Extrapolate for Temperature? [PDF]
Hodgkin and Huxley (H-H) fitted their model of voltage-dependent conductances to experimental data using empirical functions of voltage. The thermodynamic H-H model of voltage dependent conductances is more physically plausible, as it constrains and ...

Voltage-gated proton channel in a dinoflagellate [PDF]
Fogel and Hastings first hypothesized the existence of voltage-gated proton channels in 1972 in bioluminescent dinoflagellates, where they were thought to trigger the flash by activating luciferase. Proton channel genes were subsequently identified in human, mouse, and Ciona intestinalis , but their existence in ...

Fenestropathy of Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels [PDF]
Voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav) are responsible for the initiation and propagation of action potentials in excitable cells. From pain to heartbeat, these integral membrane proteins are the ignition stations for every sensation and action in human bodies.
