Control of Inward Rectifier K Channel Activity by Lipid Tethering of Cytoplasmic Domains

Interactions between nontransmembrane domains and the lipid membrane are proposed to modulate activity of many ion channels. In Kir channels, the so-called “slide-helix” is proposed to interact with the lipid headgroups and control channel gating. We examined this possibility directly in a cell-free...
