Bestrophins are a new family of anion channels. Here, we examined the Cl channel activity of mBest4. Surprisingly, wild type mouse bestrophin-4 (mBest4) did not induce functional Cl channels when over-expressed in HEK293 cells. However, deletion of part of the C-terminus (residues 353–669) produced large Cl currents, suggesting the presence of a C-terminal motif that inhibited Cl channel functi...
