Outward open conformation of a Major Facilitator Superfamily multidrug/H+ antiporter provides insights into switching mechanism

The multidrug resistance transporter mediated efflux of antibiotics from the bacterial cytoplasm represents a major challenge to medicine. Here authors solve the X-ray crystallographic structure of the drug/H+ antiporter MdfA from Escherichia coli and shed light on the conformational switching mecha...
