A single amino acid exchange converts FocA into a unidirectional efflux channel for formate

During mixed-acid fermentation, Escherichia coli initially translocates formate out of the cell, but re-imports it at lower pH. This is performed by FocA, the archetype of the formate-nitrite transporter (FNT) family of pentameric anion channels. Each protomer of FocA has a hydrophobic pore through...
