Stoichiometry-dependent gating and structural pharmacology of cardiac GIRK1/4 channels
Cardiac G protein-gated inwardly rectifying potassium-K+ (GIRK) channels, formed by GIRK1/4 heterotetramers or GIRK4 homotetramers, are crucial regulators of heart rate, and their dysfunction is associated with atrial fibrillation. Despite their therapeutic potential as anti-arrhythmic targets, development of selective GIRK modulators has been limited by an incomplete understanding of their…
