2.A.66.4.8
MurJ (MviV) of 475 aas and 14 TMSs. Kuk et al. 2016 presented a crystal structure of MurJ from Thermosipho africanus in an inward-facing conformation at 2.0-A resolution. A hydrophobic groove is formed by two C-terminal transmembrane helices, which leads into a large central cavity that is mostly cationic. Their results suggest that alternating access is important for MurJ function, which may be applicable to other MOP superfamily transporters (Kuk et al. 2016).
