    • Sorensen, J. B.; Cha, A.; Latorre, Ramón; Rosenman, Eduardo; Bezanilla, Francisco (ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2000-02)
      When attached outside the voltage-sensing S4 segment of the Shaker potassium channel, the fluorescent probe tetramethylrhodamine (TMRM) undergoes voltage-dependent fluorescence changes (Delta F) due to differential interaction ...
    • González, Carlos; Rosenman, Eduardo; Bezanilla, Francisco; Álvarez Araya, Osvaldo; Latorre, Ramón (ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2000-02)
      In Shaker K+ channels depolarization displaces outwardly the positively charged residues of the S4 segment. The amount of this displacement is unknown, but large movements of the S4 segment should be con strained by the ...
    • González, Carlos; Rosenman, Eduardo; Bezanilla, Francisco; Álvarez Araya, Osvaldo; Latorre, Ramón (NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2001-08-14)
      Upon depolarization positive charges contained in the transmembrane segment S4 of voltage-dependent channels are displaced from the cytoplasmic to the external milieu, This charge movement leads to channel opening. In ...
