X-ray crystallography has provided tremendous insight into the different structural states of membrane proteins and, in particular, of ion channels. However, the molecular forces that determine the thermodynamic stability of a particular state are poorly understood. Here we analyze the different X-ray structures of an inwardly rectifying potassium channel (Kir1.1) in relation to functional data we obtained for over 190 mutants in Kir1.1. This mutagenic perturbation analysis uncovered an extensive, state-dependent network of physically interacting residues that stabilizes the pre-open and open states of the channel, but fragments upon channel closure. We demonstrate that this gating network is an important structural determinant of the thermodynamic stability of these different gating states and determines the impact of individual mutations on channel function. These results have important implications for our understanding of not only K+ channel gating but also the more general nature of conformational transitions that occur in other allosteric proteins. Functional validation of different crystallographic states of Kir channels Presence of a state-dependent gating network revealed by large-scale mutagenesis Biased effect of mutations on Kir channel gating due to open-state destabilization Long-range allosteric coupling mediated by a physically connected residue network The molecular forces that determine the thermodynamic stability of ion channel gating states are poorly understood. Here, Bollepalli et al. show that an extensive state-dependent network of physically interacting residues determines the thermodynamic stability of the different gating states in Kir channels.
