Despite its importance, the molecular mechanisms underlying TMEM16F activation remain poorly understood. Here, we obtained high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy structures of TMEM16F active in liposomes. In high-activity conditions, TMEM16F adopts two conformations, the canonical Ca-bound closed state and one where the upward rotation of the cytosolic domain leads to an X-shaped groove that forms a transmembrane pore and locally thins the membrane. Using mutagenesis, functional assays and molecular dynamics simulations, we show that the X-shaped groove is active and mediates nonselective ion flux and lipid scrambling through distinct pathways; ions move within the protein-delimited pore, whereas lipids skirt the X-shaped groove. Our findings provide a complete picture of TMEM16F Ca-dependent gating and demonstrate that imaging membrane proteins in a native-like environment can allow capturing otherwise inaccessible active states. |
