Figure 7. A working model for CHGB membrane insertion and channel formation.

Figure 7.

Dynamic equilibrium exists between CHGB dimers and oligomers (probably tetramers, Un). In detergents, dimers are favored while in membrane oligomers (tetramers) are. Bottom: a scheme for CHGB insertion into membranes from the luminal side, forming a Cl channel and part of each CHGB subunit resides on the luminal surface.
