Allosteric modulation of LRRC8 channels by targeting their cytoplasmic domains
Volume-regulated anion channels (VRACs) are heteromers of LRRC8 proteins, all containing the obligatory subunit LRRC8A. Here, the authors develop and characterize nanobodies that bind LRRC8A and allosterically modulate the function of homomeric LRRC8A and endogenous heteromeric channels, hinting at...

| Sumario: | Volume-regulated anion channels (VRACs) are heteromers of LRRC8 proteins, all containing the obligatory subunit LRRC8A. Here, the authors develop and characterize nanobodies that bind LRRC8A and allosterically modulate the function of homomeric LRRC8A and endogenous heteromeric channels, hinting at functional mechanisms present in VRACs. |
