Although human and chicken BEST1 orthologs have been extensively studied, the structural and functional properties of mouse BEST1 (mBEST1) remain poorly understood. In this study, we characterized the structure-function of mBEST1-BF, a C-terminally tagged variant, using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings, surface biotinylation assays, and single-particle cryo-electron microscopy. Cryo-electron microscopy structural analysis of mBEST1-BF revealed closed and partially open conformations. Comparative analysis with human and chicken BEST1 orthologs highlighted conserved calcium-binding and gating mechanisms, with distinct features in mBEST1, including a wider aperture sufficient to accommodate dehydrated Cl ions and potential anion-binding sites near Val205 and Gln208 residues. The disordered C-terminal region of mBEST1 remains unresolved, suggesting it may require stabilizing factors for structural determination. Additionally, the autoinhibitory domain, which includes Ser354, likely plays a key role in regulating gating, with Ser354 potentially serving as a phosphorylation site that modulates channel activity. Our findings provide structural and functional insights into mBEST1 and suggest mechanisms underlying its unique gating and ion permeation properties. |
