Abstract
A large number of charged amino acids are in the extracellularly located parts of the voltage-gated ion channels. Recent findings suggest that these surface charges contribute to the channel functions in the sensing of voltage, the binding of substances, and the sensing of H(+) concentration.Year: 2000 PMID: 11390870 DOI: 10.1152/physiologyonline.2000.15.1.15
