Publication Abstract from PubMedVoltage-gated sodium channels have essential roles in electrical signalling. Prokaryotic sodium channels are tetramers consisting of transmembrane (TM) voltage-sensing and pore domains, and a cytoplasmic carboxy-terminal domain. Previous crystal structures of bacterial sodium channels revealed the nature of their TM domains but not their C-terminal domains (CTDs).

A 2.9 A resolution crystal structure of the NavMs pore indicates the position of the CTD, which is consistent with the EPR-derived structure.
