Biological engineering is a science-based discipline founded upon the biological sciences in the same way that chemical engineering, electrical engineering, and mechanical engineering [7] can be based upon chemistry, electricity and magnetism, and classical mechanics, respectively.
Science's first foray into dramatic programming, its premiere on the channel will be simulcast on sister network Discovery Channel. [2] The Critical Eye – An eight-part series examining pseudoscientific and paranormal phenomena. Dinosaur Revolution – A four-part miniseries on the natural history of dinosaurs. The last two episodes were ...
Luminal calcium acts as a TPC1 inhibitor, preventing ion conductance. There are two calcium binding sites for VSD2 on the luminal side. The first site does not affect the channel. Site 2, composed of residues in VSD2 and the pore domain, inhibits the channel by shifting the voltage dependence to more positive voltages. [1]
The flux of ions through the potassium channel pore is regulated by two related processes, termed gating and inactivation. Gating is the opening or closing of the channel in response to stimuli, while inactivation is the rapid cessation of current from an open potassium channel and the suppression of the channel's ability to resume conducting.

Ion channels are a type of transmembrane channel responsible for the passive transport of positively charged ions (sodium, potassium, calcium, hydrogen and magnesium) and negatively charged ions (chloride) and, can be either gated or ligand-gated channels. One of the best studied ion channels is the potassium ion channel. The potassium ion ...
Engineering biology is the set of methods for designing, building, and testing engineered biological systems which have been used to manipulate information, construct materials, process chemicals, produce energy, provide food, and help maintain or enhance human health and environment.
BK channel openers can also have a protective effect on the cardiovascular system. [10] At a low concentration of calcium BK channels have a greater impact on vascular tone . [ 10 ] Furthermore, the signaling system of BK channels in the cardiovascular system have an influence on the functioning of coronary blood flow . [ 10 ]
