Funny Current - Molecular Determinants

Molecular Determinants

The molecular determinants of the pacemaker current belong to the Hyperpolarization-activated Cyclic Nucleotide-gated channels family (HCN, see HCN channel) of which 4 isoforms (HCN1-4) are known. Based on their sequence, HCN channels are classified as members of the superfamily of voltage-gated K+ (Kv) and CNG channels.
