RE: What do I need a ICC-MC number for? I&#39;m starting a small transportation business with a partner, we have a US DOT # already, Do I also need a ICC-MC # and what is it for? We are transporting interstate and I want to be in compliance. We are driving dually trucks with 53&#39; step deck trailers.
Voltage-gated ion channel Voltage-gated ion channels are a class of transmembrane ion channels that are activated by changes in electrical potential difference near the channel; these types of ion channels are especially critical in neurons, but are common in many types of cells.
Many ion channels are gated, regulated to be in either the open or closed conformation. Gated ion channels will be described in greater detail in the tutorial entitled Membrane Potential, Ion Transport and Nerve Impulse, which focuses on the transport of ions and the function of nerve cells.
