Abstract excerpt
Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channels comprise four subunits and are activated by the direct binding of cyclic nucleotide to an intracellular domain on each subunit. This ligand binding domain is thought to contain a beta roll followed by two alpha helices, designated the B and C helices. To examine the quaternary structure of CNG channels and how it changes during ion channel gating, we introduced single...
