Abstract

The cytosolic concentration of citrate partially depends on its direct import across the plasma membrane by the Na+-dependent citrate transporter (NaCT); here the X-ray crystal structure of a bacterial homologue of NaCT is reported, which, along with transport-activity studies, suggests how specific conformational changes facilitate substrate translocation across the cellular membrane.
