Abstract excerpt
The Fluc family is a set of small membrane proteins forming F(-)-specific electrodiffusive ion channels that rescue microorganisms from F(-) toxicity during exposure to weakly acidic environments. The functional channel is built as a dual-topology homodimer with twofold symmetry parallel to the membrane plane. Fluc channels are blocked by nanomolar-affinity fibronectin-domain monobodies originally selected from...
