Computational engineering of water-soluble human potassium ion channels through QTY transformation

Abstract Transmembrane potassium ion channels are crucial for ion transport, metabolism, and signaling, and serve as promising targets for anti-cancer therapies. However, their hydrophobic transmembrane nature requires detergents, posing a major bottleneck for experimental handling. In this paper, w...
