Table of Contents:
- Contents: Voltage-dependent ion channels
- Critical to proper nerve and muscle function
- Voltage sensitivity is mediated by positively charged segments of the protein
- These voltage sensors move outward with depolarization to trigger channel opening
- The return of one sensor to the resting positions closes the channel
- Hypothesized mechanisms of voltage sensor movement are detailed.
