“…To image where the voltage sensors of Kv2 proteins adopt a specific resting conformation in tissue, we exploit the conformation-selective binding of GxTX variants functionalized with optical probes to report Kv2 conformational changes (Fletcher-Taylor et al, 2020;Thapa et al, 2021;Tilley et al, 2014). Given the large number of conformation-specific ion channel toxins (Ahuja et al, 2015;Catterall et al, 2007;Dockendorff et al, 2018;McCormack et al, 2013;McDonough et al, 1997;Peretz et al, 2010;Sack et al, 2004;Schmalhofer et al, 2008;Swartz, 2007;Zhang et al, 2018), this approach may be exploited against numerous channels.…”
