Extended Data Fig. 9. Expanded (E) and Contracted (C) conformations of the TMC-1 complex.

Extended Data Fig. 9

a, A TMC-1 protomer in the E conformation (blue) and the C conformation (green), superposed based on backbone alpha-carbon atoms, highlighting conformational changes in TMC-1, as well as CALM-1 and TMIE. The axis of rotation is shown as a red bar and arrows indicate the direction of rotation from the C to the E state. b, Membrane thickness in the C conformation calculated from the last 500 ns of the atomistic MD trajectories, averaged over all the three simulation replicas. Heatmaps corresponding to the thickness of extracellular and cytoplasmic leaflets are shown in left and right panels, respectively.
