The amino-terminal domain, consisting of TM1–6, forms a horseshoe-shaped structure, surrounding TM7–9 of the carboxy-terminal domain. The two catalytic aspartate residues are located on the ...

Aspartate plays important roles in the body, including in the lungs. As an amino acid, it’s one of the building blocks of proteins, crucial to the structure and function of lung cells.

Archaeal glutamate transporter homologs catalyze the coupled uptake of aspartate and three sodium ... Here, we report a crystal structure of the substrate-free transporter Glt Tk from Thermococcus ...

Aspartic acid, also called aminosuccinic acid or aspartate, is a non-essential amino acid that is made naturally in the human body through dietary intake. Image ...

Arkhipova studied the structure of the binding site with either L- or D-aspartate attached. She observed that D-aspartate was accommodated with only minor rearrangements of the structure ...
