In voltage-activated ion channels, voltage sensor (VSD) activation induces pore
opening via VSD-pore coupling. Previous studies show that the pore in KCNQ1
channels opens when the VSD activates to both intermediate and fully activated
states, resulting in the intermediate open (IO) and activated open (AO) states,
respectively. It is also well known that accompanying KCNQ1 channel opening, the
ionic current is suppressed by a rapid process called inactivation. Here we show
that inactivation of KCNQ1 channels derives from the different mechanisms of the
VSD-pore coupling that lead to the IO and AO states, respectively. When the VSD
activates from the intermediate state to the activated state, the VSD-pore
coupling has less efficacy in opening the pore, producing inactivation. These
results indicate that different mechanisms, other than the canonical VSD-pore
coupling, are at work in voltage-dependent ion channel activation.
