Global Twisting Motion of Single Molecular KcsA Potassium Channel upon Gating
Ion channels are signal transduction molecules that switch ion permeation pathways on and off (gating). Crystal structures of several kinds of potassium channels have revealed open and closed conformations, which provide static pictures of gating status. Here we studied KcsA potassium channels undergoing conformational changes at the single-molecule level. A KcsA channel with a gold nanocrystal...
متن کاملEffects of Rotational Motion in Robotic Needle Insertion
Background: Robotic needle insertion in biological tissues has been known as one the most applicable procedures in sampling, robotic injection and different medical therapies and operations.Objective: In this paper, we would like to investigate the effects of angular velocity in soft tissue insertion procedure by considering force-displacement diagram. Non-homogenous camel liver can be exploite...
متن کاملToward elucidating the heat activation mechanism of the TRPV1 channel gating by molecular dynamics simulation.
As a key cellular sensor, the TRPV1 cation channel undergoes a gating transition from a closed state to an open state in response to various physical and chemical stimuli including noxious heat. Despite years of study, the heat activation mechanism of TRPV1 gating remains enigmatic at the molecular level. Toward elucidating the structural and energetic basis of TRPV1 gating, we have performed m...
متن کاملA combined coarse-grained and all-atom simulation of TRPV1 channel gating and heat activation
The transient receptor potential (TRP) channels act as key sensors of various chemical and physical stimuli in eukaryotic cells. Despite years of study, the molecular mechanisms of TRP channel activation remain unclear. To elucidate the structural, dynamic, and energetic basis of gating in TRPV1 (a founding member of the TRPV subfamily), we performed coarse-grained modeling and all-atom molecul...
متن کاملContribution of TRPV1-TRPA1 interaction to the single channel properties of the TRPA1 channel.
Several lines of evidence suggest that TRPA1 and TRPV1 mutually control the transduction of inflammation-induced noxious stimuli in sensory neurons. It was recently shown that certain TRPA1 properties are modulated by TRPV1. However, direct interaction between TRPA1 and TRPV1 as well as regulation of TRPA1 intrinsic characteristics by the TRPV1 channel have not been examined. To address these q...
