Visualization of the real-time conformational transitions of the human voltage-gated proton channel hHv1 provided novel insights into how voltage and pH gradients modify the dynamic behaviors of channel structures to control proton flow across membrane.
Structural and functional analysis of the OTOP3 channel from Xenopus tropicalis offers insights into the mechanism of ion transport and regulation in the otopetrin proton channel family.
