W546 stacking disruption traps the human porphyrin transporter ABCB6 in an outward-facing transient state

Abstract Human ATP-binding cassette transporter subfamily B6 (ABCB6) is a mitochondrial ATP-driven pump that translocates porphyrins from the cytoplasm into mitochondria for heme biosynthesis. Within the transport pathway, a conserved aromatic residue W546 located in each monomer plays a pivotal rol...
