Structural basis for phosphorylation-induced inactivation of the rice ammonium transporter AMT1;1

Ammonium (NH4+) uptake and transport in plants are mediated by ammonium transporters (AMTs), which are tightly regulated by phosphorylation to prevent excess ammonium influx and toxic accumulation. However, the mechanism of phosphorylation-mediated inactivation is unique and remains unclear. Here, we report cryo-EM str...
