Molecular dynamics simulations of the bacterial UraA H+-uracil symporter in lipid bilayers reveal a closed state and a selective interaction with cardiolipin.
The Escherichia coli UraA H+-uracil symporter is a member of the nucleobase/ascorbate transporter (NAT) family of proteins, and is responsible for the proton-driven uptake of uracil. Multiscale molecular dynamics simulations of the UraA symporter in phospholipid bilayers consisting of: 1) 1-palmitoy...
