Dynamic modulation of the lipid translocation groove generates a conductive ion channel in Ca(2+)-bound nhTMEM16

Both lipid and ion translocation by Ca(2+)-regulated TMEM16 transmembrane proteins utilizes a membrane-exposed hydrophilic groove. Several conformations of the groove are observed in TMEM16 protein structures, but how these conformations form, and what functions they support, remains unknown. From a...
