Mechanisms of Proton Conduction and Gating in Influenza M2 Proton Channels from Solid-State NMR

Abstract

M2 Out of the Envelope: The M2 protein from influenza A virus forms an acid-activated tetrameric proton channel in the viral envelope and is essential for viral replication. Two manuscripts shed light on the functional mechanism of this channel. Sharma et al. (p. 509 ; see the Perspective by Fiorin et al. ) determined the structure of the conductance domain in a lipid bilayer and propose that a histidine and tryptophan from each monomer form a cluster that guides protons through the channel in a mechanism that involves forming and breaking hydrogen bonds between adjacent pairs of histidines. Hu et al. (p. 505 ; see the Perspective by Fiorin et al. ) focused on the structure and dynamics of the proton-selective histidine at high and low pH, proposing that proton conduction involves histidine deprotonation and reprotonation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
