Ligand induced conformational changes of the human serotonin transporter revealed by molecular dynamics simulations.

The competitive inhibitor cocaine and the non-competitive inhibitor ibogaine induce different conformational states of the human serotonin transporter. It has been shown from accessibility experiments that cocaine mainly induces an outward-facing conformation, while the non-competitive inhibitor ibo...
