Lipid-mediated gating of a miniature mechanosensitive MscS channel from Trypanosoma cruzi
Abstract The mechanosensitive channel of small conductance (MscS) from E. coli (EcMscS) has served as the prevailing model system for understanding mechanotransduction in ion channels. Trypanosoma cruzi, the protozoan parasite causing Chagas disease, encodes a miniature MscS ortholog (TcMscS) critic...
