A Steric “Ball-and-Chain” Mechanism for pH-Mediated Regulation of Gap Junction Channels
Gap junction channels (GJCs) mediate intercellular communication and are gated by numerous conditions such as pH. The electron cryomicroscopy (cryo-EM) structure of Cx26 GJC at physiological pH recapitulates previous GJC structures in lipid bilayers. At pH 6.4, we identify two conformational states,...
