reach
"Interestingly, we found that the KCNQ4 variants around the pore region produced a significantly impaired potassium current."

reach
"Most KCNQ4 mutations linked to hearing loss are clustered around the pore region of the protein and lead to loss of KCNQ4-mediated potassium currents."

reach
"In this study, we explored the application of genotype/pathophysiology-based customized pharmacology to functionally rescue impaired KCNQ4-mediated potassium currents related to novel DFNA2 variants."

reach
"Molecular modeling analysis suggested that the p.Ser269del mutation could cause structural distortion and change in the electrostatic surface potential of the KCNQ4 channel protein, which may impede K+ transport."

reach
"18 Surface channel expression studies in Xenopus oocytes suggest that missense mutations in the P-loop of KCNQ4 reduce potassium currents in a dominant negative manner."
