title = "Voltage-gated sodium channels assemble and gate as dimers",
abstract = "Voltage-gated sodium channels are expressed in excitable tissues and mutations have been linked to cardiac arrhythmias and channelopathies. Here the authors show that the sodium channel α-subunits interact to form a dimer and gate as dimer and that this functional dimerisation is conserved.",
