Molecular basis for redox control by the human cystine/glutamate antiporter system xc−
System xc- is a cystine transporter that is expressed in the plasma membrane and imports cystine in exchange for intracellular glutamate. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structure of human system xc- both in the apo form and the glutamate bound state, and further supported by molecular dynamic...
