Fig. 6. Comparison among family members and exchange mechanism.

Fig. 6

a TM3 and TM10 defined the pocket position of representative states of SLC members’ pockets. bd Schematic representation showing a complete alternate opening in TMD. eh Schematic representation showing a hypothetic exchange mechanism. e A thermodynamically stable symmetric inward homodimer in resting state. f binding of anions pair activates the transport of one protomer. Allosterism of two TMDs processes the inverted alternate-access mechanism. pA and pB: protomer A and protomer B, respectively.
