Identification of a drug binding pocket in TMEM16F calcium-activated ion channel and lipid scramblase

Abstract The dual functions of TMEM16F as Ca2+-activated ion channel and lipid scramblase raise intriguing questions regarding their molecular basis. Intrigued by the ability of the FDA-approved drug niclosamide to inhibit TMEM16F-dependent syncytia formation induced by SARS-CoV-2, we examined cryo-...
