General mechanism that YiiP uses to transport Zn2+ from the cytoplasm to the periplasm. This mechanism involves 2 major conformations; the inward-facing conformation (A & B) and the outward-facing conformation (C & D). Helices TM1, TM2, TM4, and TM5 (blue) are shown pivoting relative to helices TM3 & TM6 (blue). The CTD (yellow) does not move during this conformation change as it it held together tightly by binding Zn<sup>2+</sup>.
