2.A.19.2.11
The Ca2+:H+ antiporter, YfkE; homotrimer with subunit size of 451 aas.  The 3-d x-ray strcuture is known to 3.1 Å resolution (Wu et al. 2013).  The conformational transition is triggered by the rotation of the kink angles of transmembrane helices 2 and 7 and is mediated by large conformational changes in their adjacent transmembrane helices 1 and 6.  The inward facing conformation contrasts with the outward facing conformation demonstrated for NCX_Mj (TC# 2.A.19.5.3).  The inward facing conformation has a "hydrophobic seal" that closes the external exit.
