Helix dynamics in a membrane transport protein: comparative simulations of the glycerol-3-phosphate transporter and its constituent helices.
- Abstract:
-
The glycerol-3-phosphate transporter (GlpT) is a member of the major facilitator superfamily (MFS). GlpT is an organic phosphate/inorganic phosphate antiporter. It shares a similar fold with other MFS transporters (e.g. LacY and EmrD) consisting of 12 transmembrane (TM) helices which form two domains (each of six TM helices) surrounding a central ligand-binding cavity. The TM helices (especially the cavity-lining helices) contain a large number of proline and glycine residues, which may aid i...
