Transition metal ion FRET uncovers K+ regulation of a neurotransmitter/sodium symporter

The neurotransmitter transporter SERT counter transport K+ to transport serotonin. Here the authors show that the activity of the prokaryotic orthologue LeuT is also modulated by this cation, suggesting a general regulatory role for K+on neutrotrasmitter:sodium symporters function.
