Substrate binding-induced conformational transitions in the omega-3 fatty acid transporter MFSD2A

Abstract Major Facilitator Superfamily Domain containing 2 A (MFSD2A) is a transporter that is highly enriched at the blood-brain and blood-retinal barriers, where it mediates Na+-dependent uptake of ω−3 fatty acids in the form of lysolipids into the brain and eyes, respectively. Despite recent stru...
