Difference between Action potential and Shaker gene

Action potential vs. Shaker gene

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise. The shaker (Sh) gene, when mutated, causes a variety of atypical behaviors in the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster.

Similarities between Action potential and Shaker gene

Action potential and Shaker gene have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Ion channel, Neuromuscular junction, Neurotransmitter, Potassium channel, Voltage-gated ion channel.

Ion channel

Ion channels are pore-forming membrane proteins that allow ions to pass through the channel pore.

Neuromuscular junction

A neuromuscular junction (or myoneural junction) is a chemical synapse formed by the contact between a motor neuron and a muscle fiber.

Neurotransmitter

Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemicals that enable neurotransmission.

Potassium channel

Potassium channels are the most widely distributed type of ion channel and are found in virtually all living organisms.

Voltage-gated ion channel

Voltage-gated ion channels are a class of transmembrane proteins that form ion channels that are activated by changes in the electrical membrane potential near the channel.
