TMEM16A, also known as anoctamin 1, is a recently identified Ca2+-activated chloride channel and the first member of a 10-member TMEM16 family. TMEM16A dysfunction is implicated in many diseases such as cancer, hypertension, and cystic fibrosis. TMEM16A channels are well known to be dually regulated by voltage and Ca2+. In addition, recent studies have revealed that TMEM16A channels are regulated by many molecules such as calmodulin, protons, cholesterol, and phosphoinositides, and a diverse range of stimuli such as thermal and mechanical stimuli. A better understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of TMEM16A is important to understand its physiological and pathological role. Recently, the crystal structure of a TMEM16 family member from the fungus Nectria haematococcaten (nhTMEM16) is discovered, and provides valuable information for studying the structure and function of TMEM16A. In this review, we discuss the structure and function of TMEM16A channels based on the crystal structure of nhTMEM16A and focus on the regulatory mechanisms of TMEM16A channels. J. Cell.
