A gating charge interaction required for late slow inactivation of the bacterial sodium channel NavAb
Voltage-gated sodium channels undergo slow inactivation during repetitive depolarizations, which controls the frequency and duration of bursts of action potentials and prevents excitotoxic cell death. Although homotetrameric bacterial sodium channels lack the intracellular linker-connecting homologous domains III and IV that causes fast inactivation of eukaryotic sodium channels, they retain th...
متن کاملNa+/Ca2+ selectivity in the bacterial voltage-gated sodium channel NavAb
The recent publication of a number of high resolution bacterial voltage-gated sodium channel structures has opened the door for the mechanisms employed by these channels to distinguish between ions to be elucidated. The way these channels select between Na(+) and K(+) has been investigated in computational studies, but the selectivity for Na(+) over Ca(2+) has not yet been studied in this way. ...
متن کاملSodium channel inactivation: molecular determinants and modulation.
Voltage-gated sodium channels open (activate) when the membrane is depolarized and close on repolarization (deactivate) but also on continuing depolarization by a process termed inactivation, which leaves the channel refractory, i.e., unable to open again for a period of time. In the "classical" fast inactivation, this time is of the millisecond range, but it can last much longer (up to seconds...
متن کاملInactivation of the Sodium Channel
A B S X R A C T Gating current (I~) has been studied in relation to inactivation of the Na channels. No component of lg has the time course of inactivation; apparent ly little or no charge movement is associated with this step. Inactivation nonetheless affects Ig by immobilizing about two-thirds of gating charge. Immobilization can be followed by measuring ON charge movement dur ing a pulse and...
