Example sentences for: voltage-gated
How can you use “voltage-gated” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Earlier studies in the voltage-gated Na +channel had shown that pore function was not compromised when the II-III linker or III-IV linker was cut and the two fragments were coexpressed each in a separate vector [ 37 ] . We would thus conclude that in the case of the Ca 2+channel, an intact II-III loop is essential for this function since neither fs-α 1S nor the combined expression of the two truncated fragments (not shown) was able to rescue Ca 2+current.
Of the four voltage-gated K +-channel types Kv1-4, the Shaker , or Kv1 channel gene is, from a genomic perspective, arguably the most complex.
Because the target of DDT and pyrethroid insecticides is the voltage-gated Na +channel [ 15 ] , and considering that the anti-malarial quinine blocks K +channels, insights into the ion channels in the genomes of this mosquito and other insects may be useful for investigating how DDT and other pesticides may be used with greatest efficacy and safety.
We examined the effects of 4-AP on cAMP, progesterone and estradiol production by PCG-2 after confirming that these cells express 4-AP sensitive voltage-gated K +currents similar to those in primary cells (see additional file 1).
Protein-protein complementation between the N-terminal and C-terminal fragments produced a DHPR capable of functioning as EC coupling voltage sensor, thus suggesting the presence of at least two functional modules within α 1S . Recent evidence suggests that the four internal repeats of the voltage-gated Na +channel, which is closely related to the L-type Ca 2+channel encoded by the DHPR, have non-equivalent functional roles because the S4 segments of repeats I and II move much faster than those of repeats III and IV [ 40 ] . By analogy, the "fast-moving" module of the DHPR would be represented by the N-terminal fragment and the "slower-moving" module by the C-terminal fragment.
