New Insights into Ion Channels: Predicting hERG-Drug Interactions
Drug-induced long QT syndrome can be a very dangerous side effect of existing and developmental drugs. In this work, a model proposed two decades ago addressing the ion specificity of potassium channels is extended to the human ether-à-gogo gene (hERG). hERG encodes the protein that assembles into t...
