High impact information on KCNH1

  • Conformational switch between slow and fast gating modes: allosteric regulation of voltage sensor mobility in the EAG K+ channel [1].
  • Low concentrations of dofetilide produced block of bEAG T432S/A443S; unlike HERG, block was almost irreversible [2].
  • Comparison of EAG currents with IKx, a noninactivating K+ current in the inner segment of rod photoreceptors, reveals an intriguing similarity, suggesting that EAG polypeptides are involved in the formation of Kx channels [3].
  • These included 1-octen-3-ol, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol, naphthalene, and all EAG active compounds identified from urine [4].
  • The expression of surface receptors on T mu- and T gamma-cell subsets was determined according to their capacity to bind different numbers of erythrocyte antibody complexes EAM or EAG [5].
 

Associations of KCNH1 with chemical compounds

  • Dofetilide blocked the triply mutated bEAG T432S/A443S/A453S with an IC(50) value of 1.1 microM [2].
