Structural modeling of the hERG potassium channel and associated drug interactions
The voltage-gated potassium channel, KV11.1, encoded by the human Ether-à-go-go-Related Gene (hERG), is expressed in cardiac myocytes, where it is crucial for the membrane repolarization of the action potential. Gating of the hERG channel is characterized by rapid, voltage-dependent, C-type inactiva...
