Breaking the Hydrophobicity of the MscL Pore: Insights into a Charge-Induced Gating Mechanism
The mechanosensitive channel of large conductance (MscL) is a protein that responds to membrane tension by opening a transient pore during osmotic downshock. Due to its large pore size and functional reconstitution into lipid membranes, MscL has been proposed as a promising artificial nanovalve suit...
