The apo state structure of human Organic Anion Transporter 1 (hOAT1), determined by cryo-EM, reveals the transporter in an inward-facing conformation. This means the central substrate-binding cavity is open toward the intracellular side of the membrane, ready to release a substrate or accept one from the cytoplasm.
