Voltage-Gated Potassium Ion Channel Activation - CISMeF
Voltage-Gated Potassium Ion Channel ActivationNCIt concept
Preferred Label : Voltage-Gated Potassium Ion Channel Activation;
NCIt definition : A process that involves detection of alteration to the voltage across a membrane,
and results in opening of the channel to become selectively permeable to potassium
ions. This interaction plays a crucial role in setting the potential of the resting
membrane.;
NCIt note : Deficiencies in this process may result in cardiac dysrhythmia.;
