The role of lipids in mechanosensation

The ability of proteins to sense membrane tension is pervasive in biology. A higher resolution structure of E. coli MscS, the channel of small conductance, identifies alkyl chains inside pockets formed by the transmembrane helices (TMs). Purified MscS contains E. coli lipids and fluorescence quenchi...
