This study identifies how PIP2 binding at an allosteric site inhibits human rod CNG channels by stabilizing non-conductive conformations.

This study investigates the gating mechanism of MthK channels using mutants, revealing hydrophobic and lipid-mediated processes that drive channel closure.

This study identifies a salt bridge in the bacterial ion channel SthK that functions as a temperature sensor, with lipid composition modulating its sensitivity to temperature changes.
