Structural determinants of ivabradine block of the open pore of HCN4

A Saponaro, JH Krumbach, A Chaves-Sanjuan… - Proceedings of the …, 2024 - pnas.org
HCN1-4 channels are the molecular determinants of the If/Ih current that crucially regulates
cardiac and neuronal cell excitability. HCN dysfunctions lead to sinoatrial block (HCN4) …
