Structural insights into the mechanisms of urea permeation and distinct inhibition modes of urea transporters

Abstract Urea’s transmembrane transport through urea transporters (UT) is a fundamental physiological behavior for life activities. Here, we present 11 cryo-EM structures of four UT members in resting states, urea transport states, or inactive states bound with synthetic competitive, uncompetitive o...
