A far-reaching volume of contributions on the important hERG gene, covering laboratory work in molecular and cell biology, as well as clinical applications. * Features perspectives from regulatory authorities on preferred preclinical test systems. * Includes detailed descriptions of ion channel structure, gating and function.
This book draws together contributions from basic, pharmaceutical and clinical sciences aimed at a better understanding of the structure and function of hERG and the molecular basis for compound binding. It features regulatory authority perspectives on preferred preclinical test systems and includes topics on hERG channel gating, regulation of functional expression, pharmacological properties of hERG/IKr channels, drug-induced long QT syndrome and preclinical evaluation and regulatory recommendations for assessing QT prolongation risks. Better understanding of the role of the hERG channel in drug-induced cardiac arrhythmias should ultimately lead to the development of important, new and safer medicines.

The Novartis Foundation is an international scientific and educational charity that promotes the study and general knowledge of science and in particular encourages international co-operation in scientific research.

Chair's introduction (Michael Sanguinetti). Gating and assembly of heteromeric hERG1a/1b channels underlying IKr in the heart (Gail A. Robertson, Eugenia M. C. Jones and Jinling Wang). Structure-function studies of outer mouth and voltage sensor domain of hERG (Gea-Ny Tseng and H. Robert Guy). General Discussion I. Voltage sensor movement in the hERG K+ channel (David R. Piper,Michael C. Sanguinetti and Martin Tristani-Firouzi). hERG channel trafficking (Eckhard Ficker, Adrienne Dennis,Yuri Kuryshev, Barbara A.Wible and Arthur M. Brown). Dynamic control of hERG/IKrr by PKA-mediated interactions with 14-3-3 (Anna Kagan and Thomas V. McDonald). General Discussion II. Does hERG coassemble with a s subunit? Evidence for roles of MinK and MiRP1 (Arun Anantharam and Geoffrey W. Abbott). hERG block, QT liability and sudden cardiac death (Arthur M. Brown). Structural determinants for high affinity block of hERG potassium channels ( John Mitcheson, Matthew Perry, Phillip Stansfeld,Mike Sanguinetti,Harry Witchel and Jules Hancox). General Discussion III. Physicochemical basis for binding and voltage-dependent block of hERG channels by structurally diverse drugs (Michael C. Sanguinetti, Jun Chen, David Fernandez, Kaichiro Kamiya,John Mitcheson and Jose A. Sanchez-Chapula).
