Ready-to-Record Cells for Kinetic Screening of VGICs

Voltage-gated ion channels (VGICs) are integral membrane proteins crucial for transmitting electrical signals in excitable cells. Understanding the kinetics of these ion channels requires conducting patch-clamp experiments using genetically modified cell l ...

A Kinetic Map of the Homomeric Voltage-Gated Potassium Channel (Kv) Family

Henry Markram, Rajnish Ranjan, Michela Marani, Emmanuelle Logette, Valérie Buchillier, Mirjia Herzog, Valérie Tâche, Enrico Scantamburlo

The voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels, encoded by 40 genes, repolarize all electrically excitable cells, including plant, cardiac, and neuronal cells. Although these genes were fully sequenced decades ago, a comprehensive kinetic characterization of al ...

Mapping the function of neuronal ion channels in model and experiment

Rajnish Ranjan, Alexander Kevin Seeholzer, Tim Vogels, William Francis Podlaski

Ion channel models are the building blocks of computational neuron models. Their biological fidelity is therefore crucial for the interpretation of simulations. However, the number of published models, and the lack of standardization, make the comparison o ...

Engineering Neuron Models : from Ion Channels to Electrical Behavior

Rajnish Ranjan

The neocortex is one of the most evolved and complex region of the brain. For more than a century scientists have been curious about the neocortex, to identify the anatomical blueprint of its cellular organization and to understand its role in higher brain ...
