Structural basis of inhibition of a transporter from Staphylococcus aureus, NorC, through a single-domain camelid antibody

Sushant Kumar et. al. report the 3.6 Å resolution crystal structure of NorC, a 14-transmembrane major facilitator superfamily member that is implicated in fluoroquinolone resistance in drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains. The NorC structure was determined in complex with a single-domain cam...
