A member of an important class of ion channel proteins can transiently rearrange itself into a larger structure with dramatically altered properties, according to a new study. The discovery is a ...

Fifteen of the top-100 best-selling drugs target ion channels, and ion channel function is implicated in a large number of diseases as disparate as Alzheimer’s, epilepsy, heart disease, neuromuscular ...

A new understanding of how drugs are taken in by cells could impact the way drugs are administered to patients. In an Aug. 30 study published in Nature that details structural changes of the Transient ...

Ion channels are attractive drug targets due to their importance in health and disease, but finding ways to target a specific ion channel selectively is a major challenge. Now, researchers have ...
