" /> ion channel gating - CISMeF





Preferred Label : ion channel gating;

MeSH definition : The opening and closing of ion channels due to a stimulus. The stimulus can be a change in membrane potential (voltage-gated), drugs or chemical transmitters (ligand-gated), or a mechanical deformation. Gating is thought to involve conformational changes of the ion channel which alters selective permeability.;

MeSH synonym : gating, ion channel; gatings, ion channel; ion channel gatings;

MeSH annotation : do not confuse with SENSORY GATING;
