Cooperative Transition between Open and Closed Conformations in Potassium Channels

Potassium (K(+)) ion channels switch between open and closed conformations. The nature of this important transition was revealed by comparing the X-ray crystal structures of the MthK channel from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum, obtained in its open conformation, and the KcsA channel from Strep...
