Abstract
⺠KCNH1 potassium channels are exceptionally sensitive to oxidative modification. ⺠Thiol-dependent modification of channel gating occurs in two different ways. ⺠C145/C214 in the N-linker are responsible for fast modification. ⺠C532/C562 in the C-linker are responsible for slow modification. ⺠Redox regulation determines information flow from the cytosolic termini to the channel's gate.
