Structure of eukaryotic purine/H+ symporter UapA suggests a role for homodimerization in transport activity
UapA is a uric acid/xanthine H+symporter from a filamentous fungus. Here, the authors solve the crystal structure of the transporter in complex with xanthine revealing it to be a dimer, and this homodimerisation is proposed to be important for function.
