| Type: | Domain | Name: | Cation efflux protein cytoplasmic domain |
| Description: | The cation diffusion facilitator family (CDF) have members in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, several of which have been shown to transport cobalt, cadmium and/or zinc. CDF transporters share a common two-modular architecture, consisting of a transmembrane domain (TMD) followed by a C-terminal domain (CTD) protruding into the cytoplasm [].This entry represents the CDF C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. The cytoplasmic domain of Zinc transporter YiiP adopts a metallochaperone-like fold. The use of this common structural module to regulate metal coordination chemistry may enable a tunable transport activity in response to cytoplasmic metal fluctuations []. | Short Name: | Cation_efflux_CTD |
