A disease mutation reveals a non-swapped pore and rewired gating cycle of the mechanically activated PIEZO1 channel
2025-11-17
Abstract excerpt
PIEZO1 is a versatile mechanotranduction channel critical for diverse cellular and physiological processes 1–3 . Gain-of-function mutations, such as R2482H, which slow channel inactivation, are linked to dehydrated hereditary stomatocytosis (DHS) and iron overload 4–7 . PIEZO1 forms a gigantic bowl-shaped trimer comprising flattenable peripheral blades and a central pore module with a switchable cap 8–12 . Howe...
