It is protein structures that are found in cell membrane and allow certain ions to pass (such as sodium, potassium, calcium, chlorine). This complex consists of more than one subunits, and has door mechanisms with ion selectivity. Nervous transmission plays a critical role in basic physiological processes such as muscle contraction and intracellular signalization. In the clinic, mutations or dysfunctions in ion canal complex can lead to various pathologies such as epilepsy, cardiac arrhythmias and muscle diseases.
