Voltage gated channel

Broader Terms

The functional unit of a voltage-gated channel is an assembly of four proteins, or subunits; in each, the polypeptide chain snakes back and forth across the membrane six times.
MacKinnon, however, says he is convinced that the voltage-gated channel is a "solvable problem.
A cartoon of this model of the voltage-gated channel is shown in Figure 3.
A voltage-gated channel is formed by an ion-pore module (S5–S6, approximately equivalent to KcsA's M1–M2) and the surrounding voltage-sensing modules (Kubo et al.
If an electrical event opens a gated channel, it is called a voltage-gated channel.
UniProt Knowledgebase keyword: Voltage-gated channel DescriptionProtein which is a component of a voltage-gated channel.
In this channel protein there are only two transmembrane a-helices, corresponding to predicted helices # 5 & 6 in the voltage-gated channel.
