Substrate-bound outward-open structure of a Na(+)-coupled sialic acid symporter reveals a new Na(+) site

Many pathogenic bacteria utilise sialic acids as an energy source or use them as an external coating to evade immune detection. As such, bacteria that colonise sialylated environments deploy specific transporters to mediate import of scavenged sialic acids. Here, we report a substrate-bound 1.95 Å r...
