Popis: |
Besides mechanical forces, the mechanosensitive channel Piezo1 is activated by the small molecule Yoda1 through an unknown mechanism. Here, using molecular dynamics simulations, calcium imaging and electrophysiology, the authors identify an allosteric Yoda1 binding pocket located in the putative mechanosensory domain. |
