Publication Abstract from PubMed Nramp family transporters-expressed in organisms from bacteria to humans-enable uptake of essential divalent transition metals via an alternating-access mechanism that also involves proton transport. We present high-resolution structures of Deinococcus radiodurans (Dra)Nramp in multiple conformations to provide a thorough description of the Nramp transport cycle by identifying the key intramolecular rearrangements and changes to the metal coordination sphere. Strikingly, while metal transport requires cycling from outward- to inward-open states, efficient proton transport still occurs in outward-locked (but not inward-locked) DraNramp. We propose a model in which metal and proton enter the transporter via the same external pathway to the binding site, but follow separate routes to the cytoplasm, which could facilitate the co-transport of two cationic species. Our results illustrate the flexibility of the LeuT fold to support a broad range of substrate transport and conformational change mechanisms. Structures in multiple conformations reveal distinct transition metal and proton pathways in an Nramp transporter.,Bozzi AT, Zimanyi CM, Nicoludis JM, Lee BK, Zhang CH, Gaudet R Elife. 2019 Feb 4;8. pii: 41124. doi: 10.7554/eLife.41124.
