Characterization of the Prokaryotic Sodium Channel NavSp Pore with a Microfluidic Bilayer Platform.

This paper describes the use of a newly-developed micro-chip bilayer platform to examine the electrophysiological properties of the prokaryotic voltage-gated sodium channel pore (Na(v)Sp) from Silicibacter pomeroyi. The platform allows up to 6 bilayers to be analysed simultaneously. Proteoliposomes...
