ATP activates bestrophin ion channels through direct interaction
Human Bestrophin1 (hBest1), a calcium-activated chloride channel in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), is essential for retina physiology. Using electrophysiological and structural approaches, the authors uncover an ATP-dependent activation mechanism of hBest1, and identify an ATP-binding motif.
