Temperature-dependent model of human cardiac sodium channel
Cardiac sodium channels are integral membrane proteins whose structure is not known at atomic level yet and their molecular kinetics is still being studied through mathematical modeling. This study has focused on adapting an existing model of cardiac Na channel to analyze molecular kinetics of channels at 9-37°C. Irvine et al developed a Markov model for Na channel using Neuronal Network Model ...

متن کاملGating of the Bacterial Sodium Channel, NaChBac
The bacterial sodium channel, NaChBac, from Bacillus halodurans provides an excellent model to study structure-function relationships of voltage-gated ion channels. It can be expressed in mammalian cells for functional studies as well as in bacterial cultures as starting material for protein purification for fine biochemical and biophysical studies. Macroscopic functional properties of NaChBac ...
متن کاملSodium Channel Gating No Margin for Error
Voltage-gated Na(+) channels are the workhorses of spike generation and propagation in excitable cells. Mutations in Na(+) channel genes have been identified in disorders causing episodic dysfunction of heart, skeletal muscle, and brain. Lossin and colleagues from Al George's lab report in this issue of Neuron that three missense mutations of SCN1A found in a dominant epilepsy syndrome disrupt ...
متن کاملStochastic description of sodium channel gating.
A stochastic model of the sodium channel is proposed. Transitions from the resting to the open state of the channel is described by the gamma distribution. The open state is temporary with an average open time T, and the channel proceeds to the inactivated state. The channel can be represented by two identical control molecules which undergo conformation transitions under changes of the electri...
