Computational Analysis of the Crystal and Cryo-EM Structures of P-Loop Channels with Drugs

The superfamily of P-loop channels includes various potassium channels, voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels, transient receptor potential channels, and ionotropic glutamate receptors. Despite huge structural and functional diversity of the channels, their pore-forming domain has a conserved folding. In the past two decades, scores of atomic-scale structures of P-loop channels with medically important drugs in the inner pore have been …
