The number and types of venom components that affect ion-channel function are reviewed.
These are the most important venom components responsible for human intoxication …

Eukaryotic voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels contribute to the rising phase of action
potentials and served as an early muse for biophysicists laying the foundation for our current …

Voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) are large transmembrane proteins that conduct
sodium ions across the membrane and by doing so they generate signals of communication …

Voltage-gated sodium (NaV) channels initiate action potentials in excitable cells, and their
function is altered by potent gating-modifier toxins. The α-toxin LqhIII from the deathstalker …

Voltage-dependent gating of ion channels is essential for electrical signaling in excitable
cells, but the structural basis for voltage sensor function is unknown. We constructed high …
