Cryo-EM Structures of CusA Reveal a Mechanism of Metal-Ion Export

Gram-negative bacteria utilize the resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND) superfamily of efflux pumps to expel a variety of toxic compounds from the cell. The Escherichia coli CusA membrane protein, which recognizes and extrudes biocidal Cu(I) and Ag(I) ions, belongs to the heavy-metal efflux (HM...
