Difference between Potassium channel and Voltage-gated potassium channel

Potassium channel vs. Voltage-gated potassium channel

Potassium channels are the most widely distributed type of ion channel and are found in virtually all living organisms. Voltage-gated potassium channels (VGKCs) are transmembrane channels specific for potassium and sensitive to voltage changes in the cell's membrane potential.

Similarities between Potassium channel and Voltage-gated potassium channel

Potassium channel and Voltage-gated potassium channel have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Action potential, Ball and chain inactivation, HERG, Ion channel, KvLQT1, Membrane potential, Voltage-gated ion channel, X-ray crystallography.

Action potential

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.

Ball and chain inactivation

In neuroscience, ball and chain inactivation is a model to explain the fast inactivation mechanism of voltage-gated ion channels.

HERG

hERG (the human Ether-à-go-go-Related Gene) is a gene that codes for a protein known as Kv11.1, the alpha subunit of a potassium ion channel.

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.

X-ray crystallography

X-ray crystallography is a technique used for determining the atomic and molecular structure of a crystal, in which the crystalline atoms cause a beam of incident X-rays to diffract into many specific directions.
