Mechanism of pore opening in the calcium-activated chloride channel TMEM16A
The anion channel TMEM16A is activated by intracellular Ca2+ in a highly cooperative process. Here authors combine electrophysiology and autocorrelation analysis to observe the sampling of intermediate conformations during gating.
