Multiple closed states of WT-CFTR. (A) Upon washout of ATP, the first closing step (O→C2) involves ATP hydrolysis and dissociation of hydrolytic products from the NBD2 site. The second step (C2→C1) is regulated by a slow dissociation of ATP from the NBD1 site. The two closed states respond to MgPPi differently. (B) Reapplication of ATP brings the channel in the C1 state to a hypothetical C2* state with one ATP bound in NBD1. Double arrows between each state reflect the likely existence of other unidentified closed states.
