Abstract

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride channel. The most common CF-causing mutation, ΔF508-CFTR, produces CFTR loss-of-function by impairing its cellular targeting to the plasma membrane and its chloride channel gating. We recently identified cyanoquinolines with both corrector (“Co”, normalizing ΔF508-CFTR targeting) and potentiator (“Po”, normalizing ΔF508-CFTR ...
