Structural basis of ClC-3 transporter inhibition by TMEM9 and PtdIns(3,5)P2
Structure of human ClC-3
To determine how T9A and T9B regulate ClC-3, ClC-4 and ClC-5, we collected cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) images of ligand-free human ClC-3 alone and in complex with human T9A. We focused on ClC-3 because it forms…
