State-dependent photocrosslinking unveiled the role of intersubunit interfaces on Ca <sup>2+</sup> activating mechanisms of the BK channel

2022-12-18

Abstract excerpt

BK channels are high-conductance potassium channels that are activated by voltage and Ca 2+ . The pore-forming α-subunits form homotetramers including a membrane-spanning domain and a cytosolic domain with a tandem of RCK-like domains (RCK1 and RCK2) per subunit. The eight RCKs compose high affinity Ca2+-binding sites that drive channel activation. Full-length Cryo-EM structures revealed intersubunit interactions...
