Scope and Contents

Contents

A Kv1 channel inhibitor and potential therapeutic lead achieves selectivity by binding both the conserved central cavity and newly identified side pockets, which provide the key determinants for channel specificity.
Most known small-molecule inhibitors of voltage-gated ion channels have poor subtype specificity because they interact with a highl...
