Structural and mechanistic analysis of a tripartite ATP-independent periplasmic TRAP transporter

Tripartite ATP-independent periplasmic (TRAP) transporters are widespread in bacteria and archaea. Here, the authors used cryo-EM and a range of biophysical techniques to study the structure of function of the sialic acid TRAP transporter HiSiaQM.
