Two different conformational states of the KirBac3.1 potassium channel revealed by electron crystallography.

Potassium channels allow the selective flow of K(+) ions across membranes. In response to external gating signals, the potassium channel can move reversibly through a series of structural conformations from a closed to an open state. 2D crystals of the inwardly rectifying K(+) channel KirBac3.1 from...
