We have determined the first #cryoEM structures of human GlyT2 bound to a potent pseudo-irreversible inhibitor (ORG25543) that failed in pre-clinical studies, a novel and reversible inhibitor (RPI-GLYT2-82), and in the substrate-free state.

Our inhibitor-bound inward-open GAT3 reveals the binding mode of SR-THAP and the structural determinants of selectivity. Our GABA-bound inward-occluded GAT3 reveals ion coordination and substrate recognition network with exciting distinction to that previously observed for the GAT1 subtype.
