Life Sci Alliance, 8:-, 2025 Cited by PubMed Abstract: I'm Not Dead Yet (INDY) functions as a transporter for citrate, a key metabolite in the citric acid cycle, across the plasma membrane. Partial deficiency of INDY extends lifespan, akin to the effects of caloric restriction. In this work, we use cryo-electron microscopy to determine structures of INDY in the presence and absence of citrate and in complex with the well-known inhibitor 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-disulfonic acid stilbene (DIDS) at resolutions ranging from 2.7 to 3.6 Å. Together with functional data obtained in vitro, the INDY structures reveal the H/citrate co-transport mechanism, in which aromatic residue F119 serves as a one-gate element. They also provide insight into how protein-lipid interactions at the dimerization interface affect the stability and function of the transporter, and how DIDS disrupts the transport cycle.
