Abstract
JGP study (Si et al. https://doi.org/10.1085/jgp.202413578) reveals that, although they are present at low levels and only generate small currents in the sinoatrial node, Kv1.1 channels have a significant impact on cardiac pacemaking.
期刊介绍:
General physiology is the study of biological mechanisms through analytical investigations, which decipher the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying biological function at all levels of organization.
The mission of Journal of General Physiology (JGP) is to publish mechanistic and quantitative molecular and cellular physiology of the highest quality, to provide a best-in-class author experience, and to nurture future generations of independent researchers. The major emphasis is on physiological problems at the cellular and molecular level.
