Identification of a Cholesterol-Binding Pocket in Inward Rectifier K(+) (Kir) Channels

Cholesterol is the major sterol component of all mammalian plasma membranes. Recent studies have shown that cholesterol inhibits both bacterial (KirBac1.1 and KirBac3.1) and eukaryotic (Kir2.1) inward rectifier K(+) (Kir) channels. Lipid-sterol interactions are not enantioselective, and the enantiom...
