Conformational changes during the gating of a potassium channel revealed by structural mass spectrometry.
Potassium channels are dynamic proteins that undergo large conformational changes to regulate the flow of K(+) ions across the cell membrane. Understanding the gating mechanism of these channels therefore requires methods for probing channel structure in both their open and closed conformations. Rad...
