Thermodynamics of CFTR Channel Gating: A Spreading Conformational Change Initiates an Irreversible Gating Cycle

CFTR is the only ABC (ATP-binding cassette) ATPase known to be an ion channel. Studies of CFTR channel function, feasible with single-molecule resolution, therefore provide a unique glimpse of ABC transporter mechanism. CFTR channel opening and closing (after regulatory-domain phosphorylation) follo...
