A Pharmacological Master Key Mechanism that Unlocks the Selectivity Filter Gate in K(+) Channels

Potassium channels have been evolutionarily tuned for activation by diverse biological stimuli, and pharmacological activation is thought to target these specific gating mechanisms. Here we report a class of negatively charged activators (NCAs) that bypass the specific mechanisms but act as master k...
