Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Regarding ion channel, we solved high-resolution crystal structures of newly-identified Mg2+ channel MgtE, TRIC channel, P2X channel, and elucidated their substrate recognition mechanisms and gating mechanisms. For membrane transporters, we solved high-resolution crystal structures of Ca2+/H+ exchanger CAX, Fe2+ exporter FPN, sugar transporter SWEET, peptide transporter POT, amino acid exporter YddG, multi-drug exporter MATE, membrane protein integrator YidC to elucidate their substrate recognition mechanisms and transport mechanisms. We also solved high-resolution crystal structures of channel rhodopsin and light-driven Na+-pump KR2, which suggested how these rhodopsin channel/pump are gated upon light perception.
