Voltage Sensing Mechanism in the Voltage-gated and Proton (H+)-selective Ion Channel Hv1
Activation of the intrinsic aqueous water-wire proton conductance (GAQ) in Hv1 channels is controlled by changes in membrane potential and the transmembrane pH gradient (ΔpH). The mechanism by which changes in ΔpH affect the apparent voltage dependence of GAQ activation is not understood. In order t...
