Contribution of the central hydrophobic residue in the PXP motif of voltage-dependent K+ channels to S6 flexibility and gating properties.
Shaker-like (KV1.1) channels contain a highly conserved Pro-Val-Pro (PVP) motif at the base of S6 that produces a kink in the S6 helices and provides a flexible element thought to be essential for channel gating. The role of proline-induced kinks in transmembrane helices is well known, but the contr...
