EfpA-inhibitors have been developed to kill drug-tolerant Mtb. However, the biological function of EfpA has not yet been elucidated. Here, we present the cryo-EM structures of EfpA complexed with lipids or the inhibitor BRD-8000.3 at resolutions of 2.9 Å and 3.4 Å, respectively. Unexpectedly, EfpA forms an antiparallel dimer. Functional studies reveal that EfpA is a lipid transporter and BRD-8000.3 inhibits its lipid transport activity. Intriguingly, the mutation V319F, known to confer resistance to BRD-8000.3, alters the expression level and oligomeric state of EfpA. Based on our results and the observation of other antiparallel dimers in the MFS family, we propose an antiparallel-function model of EfpA. Collectively, our work provides structural and functional insights into EfpA's role in lipid transport and drug resistance, which would accelerate the development of antibiotics against this promising drug target. | |||||||||||||||||||||
