Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the identification of a channel modulator, such as an agonist or antagonist, that interacts with one or more or LRRC8A, LRRC8B, LRRC8C, LRRC8D and/or LRRC8E and/or protein complexes thereof. The invention further relates to an isolated heteromeric protein complex comprising one or more or LRRC8A, LRRC8B, LRRC8C, LRRC8D and/or LRRC8E for use in such methods, in addition to kits suitable for carrying out such methods. The invention therefore relate preferably to the use of LRRC8 proteins and complexes thereof for the identification of VRAC (VSOAC) modulators.
