| Research Abstract |
We performed site-directed cysteine scanning using accessibility of maleimide-reagent (AMS or NEM) as detected by Western blotting. When we examined the accessibility of the S4 by using NEM, we found only 6 inaccessible residues. These results suggest that the S4 segment is lined by water-accessible crevices interrupted by a small hydrophobic region.
