Research Abstract |
Voltage-dependent ion channels consist of a voltage-sensor domain(VSD) and a pore domain possessing the ion permeation pathway. This study demonstrated how VSD changes its conformation in a voltage-dependent manner, by a disulfide-locking method using a series of double cysteine mutants. In addition, the binding mode between VSD and its inhibiting toxin, analyzed by NMR, revealed the inhibition mechanism of the toxin.
