PIP2 binding at allosteric site blocks activation in human rod CNG channels

Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) is a ubiquitous signaling lipid that regulates multiple ion channels. In human cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channels, including the rod photoreceptor channel, PIP2 has been reported to exert inhibitory effects, but the underlying mech...
