The <scene name='71/716487/Default/5'>transmembrane region</scene> is within the C-terminus region, and contains 4 α-helical domains within it (M1-M4) that stretch the length of this inner, transmembrane area. These 4 α-helical domains conduct the channel openings via ion selectivity, depending on both charge and size. M2, the porous domain, contains rings of charged amino acids at both its start and its <scene name='71/716487/Default/10'>end</scene>, accounting for M2’s main contribution to ion selectivity. The M3 and M4 α-helices create a large <scene name='71/716487/Default/6'> loop</scene> with one another, thus assembling the <scene name='71/716487/Default/7'>intracellular region</scene>. | The <scene name='71/716487/Default/5'>transmembrane region</scene> is within the C-terminus region, and contains 4 α-helical domains within it (M1-M4) that stretch the length of this inner, transmembrane area.
