Cl-out is a novel cooperative optogenetic tool for extruding chloride from neurons
Nature Communications, 2016 Chloride regulation is important for setting GABAergic reversal potential, though tools to manipulate chloride levels are limited. Here, the authors combine Archaerhodopsin with a chloride channel opsin to generate an optogenetic chloride extrusion ...

Fabrication Routes for Ionic Conducting Fiber Strain Sensors
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Ionic conducting fiber strain sensors (ICFSs) offer compliant, textile‐integrable sensing. Thus far, the commercialization of ICFSs has been constrained by fiber fabrication routes. This review provides a fabrication‐centric analysis of ICFSs correlating processing strategies with material properties and scalability.

Molecular pharmacology of an insect GABA receptor [PDF]
, 2010 Cys-loop receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that are involved in fast synaptic neurotransmission in the central and peripheral nervous system. The Cys-loop receptor RDL (‘resistant to dieldrin’) is a GABA-gated chloride channel from Drosophila ...

Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...

Structure of the CLC-1 chloride channel from Homo sapiens
eLife, 2018 CLC channels mediate passive Cl− conduction, while CLC transporters mediate active Cl− transport coupled to H+ transport in the opposite direction. The distinction between CLC-0/1/2 channels and CLC transporters seems undetectable by amino acid sequence.

Pathomechanisms of a CLCN1 Mutation Found in a Russian Family Suffering From Becker's Myotonia
Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Objective: Myotonia congenita (MC) is a rare muscle disease characterized by sarcolemma over-excitability inducing skeletal muscle stiffness. It can be inherited either as an autosomal dominant (Thomsen's disease) or an autosomal recessive (Becker's ...
