Crystal structure of Kv1.2-2.1 paddle chimera channel in complex with Lys27Met mutant of Charybdotoxin

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23705070

Function

[KCAB2_RAT] Accessory potassium channel protein which modulates the activity of the pore-forming alpha subunit. [KAX11_LEIQH] Potent selective inhibitor of high conductance (maxi-K), different medium and small conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (KCa/KCNM), as well as a voltage-dependent potassium channel (Kv1.3/KCNA3). It appears to block channel activity by a simple bimolecular inhibition process.[1] Has a pH-specific antimicrobial activity against bacteria (B.subtilis, E.coli and S.aureus) and the fungus C.albicans.[2] [KCNA2_RAT] Mediates the voltage-dependent potassium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the protein forms a potassium-selective channel through which potassium ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient.[3]

About this Structure

4jtd is a 5 chain structure with sequence from Leiurus quinquestriatus hebraeus and Rattus norvegicus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
