Abstract
Background: Archaeal and brain transporters differ in substrate specificity. Results: Two residues from hairpin 2 play a role in the substrate specificity of a glutamate transporter homologue. Conclusion: Hairpin 2 plays a role in the selection and translocation of the substrate. Significance: This work provides new insights into the molecular basis of substrate specificity of transporters.
