== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/S53A1_HUMAN S53A1_HUMAN] Inorganic ion transporter that mediates phosphate ion export across plasma membrane. Plays a major role in phosphate homeostasis, preventing intracellular phosphate accumulation and possible calcium phosphate precipitation, ultimately preserving calcium signaling. The molecular mechanism of phosphate transport, whether electrogenic, electroneutral or coupled to other ions, remains to be elucidated (By similarity) (PubMed:23791524, PubMed:25938945, PubMed:31043717). Binds inositol hexakisphosphate (Ins6P) and similar inositol polyphosphates, such as 5-diphospho-inositol pentakisphosphate (5-InsP7), important intracellular signaling molecules involved in regulation of phosphate flux (PubMed:27080106).[UniProtKB:Q9Z0U0]<ref>PMID:23791524</ref> <ref>PMID:25938945</ref> <ref>PMID:27080106</ref> <ref>PMID:31043717</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Inorganic phosphate (Pi) has essential metabolic and structural roles in living organisms. The Pi exporter, XPR1/SLC53A1, is critical for cellular Pi homeostasis. When intercellular Pi is high, cells accumulate inositol pyrophosphate (1,5-InsP(8)), a signaling molecule required for XPR1 function. Inactivating XPR1 mutations lead to brain calcifications, causing neurological symptoms including movement disorders, psychosis, and dementia. Here, cryo-electron microscopy structures of dimeric XPR1 and functional characterization delineate the substrate translocation pathway and how InsP(8) initiates Pi transport. Binding of InsP(8) to XPR1, but not the related inositol polyphosphate InsP(6), rigidifies the intracellular SPX domains, with InsP(8) bridging the dimers and SPX and transmembrane domains. Locked in this state, the C-terminal tail is sequestered, revealing the entrance to the transport pathway, thus explaining the obligate roles of the SPX domain and InsP(8). Together, these findings advance our understanding of XPR1 transport activity and expand opportunities for rationalizing disease mechanisms and therapeutic intervention.
