The Outer Vestibule of the Na+ Channel–Toxin Receptor and Modulator of Permeation as Well as Gating
The outer vestibule of voltage-gated Na+ channels is formed by extracellular loops connecting the S5 and S6 segments of all four domains (“P-loops”), which fold back into the membrane. Classically, this structure has been implicated in the control of ion permeation and in toxin blockage. However, co...
