Abstract excerpt
TASK-1 is a pH-sensitive two-pore domain K+ channel implicated in diseases including pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and developmental delay with sleep apnea (DDSA). Structures of TASK-1 have been captured with an open external gate, but the structural basis for external proton inhibition is incompletely understood. Here, we present a cryo-EM structure of TASK-1 at pH 6.0 and 100 mM K+, revealing a closed...
