In situ, Reversible Gating of a Mechanosensitive Ion Channel through Protein-Lipid Interactions
Understanding the functioning of ion channels, as well as utilizing their properties for biochemical applications requires control over channel activity. Herein we report a reversible control over the functioning of a mechanosensitive ion channel by interfering with its interaction with the lipid bi...
