Partial rescue of F508del‐cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator channel gating with modest improvement of protein processing, but not stability, by a dual‐acting small molecule

Rescue of F508del‐cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), the most common CF mutation, requires small molecules that overcome protein processing, stability and channel gating defects. Here, we investigate F508del‐CFTR rescue by CFFT‐004, a small molecule designed to independently correct protein processing and channel gating defects.
