The MscS channel from Corynebacterium glutamicum uses a non-canonical gating mechanism
The function and gating mechanism of Escherichia coli mechanosensitive channel of small conductance (EcMscS) is well understood, but it is unknown whether MscS homologs in other bacteria function the same way. Here, we show that the MscS homolog from Corynebacterium glutamicum (CgMscS) opens at a much higher membrane t...
