| Abstract | The L-arginine (Arg)/agmatine (Agm) antiporter AdiC is a vital transport protein of the arginine-dependent extreme acid resistance system of enteric bacteria. Recently, both substrate-free and Arg-bound structures of AdiC were determined by X-ray crystallography. In this article, the two different proteins were investigated with three simple models. Gaussian network model provided the information of conformational changes. It is found that Arg binding induces structural rearrangement in the extracellular domain, and transmembrane helix 6 (TM6) has the most pronounced trend of conformational changes. The moving directions of fluctuation regions were further ascertained by using anisotropy elastic network model and cross-correlation analysis. Interestingly, the two substrate-binding sites hypothesis of AdiC was confirmed directly by molecular docking. Furthermore, the binding preferences of these two sites were explained from the aspects of electrostatic complementarity and geometric matching. These simple coarse-grained analyses can be used as a general and quick method for the mechanism studies of transport proteins. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
