Structural ensemble of a glutamate transporter homologue in lipid nanodisc environment
Glutamate transporters are membrane transporters that clear the neurotransmitter L-glutamate from the synaptic cleft via a so-called elevator mechanism. Here the authors present five cryo-EM structures of the transporter homologue GltTk, which explain how substrate leakage is prevented.
