Crystal structure of the Na+/H+ antiporter NhaA at active pH reveals the mechanistic basis for pH sensing

By determining the crystal structure of the Na + /H + antiporter NhaA at active pH, the authors show how substrate accessibility to the ion-binding site can be controlled by pH sensitive switch located on the cytoplasmic surface.
