Structural insight in the toppling mechanism of an energy-coupling factor transporter
Prokaryotes use energy-coupling factor transporters to uptake required micronutrients and an unusual toppling mechanism has been proposed for their function. Here, the authors provide structural support for this mechanism, allowing direct visualization of the toppled state.
