Cation–chloride cotransporters (CCCs) shuttle Na+, K+, and Cl− across membranes. However, it remains unclear how CCCs alternate between transport states so they can load ions from one side of a membrane for release into the other side. Moreover, CCCs are targeted by compounds that are used as clinical medicines for treating hypertension/edema or as pharmacological tools for dissecting CCC functions. How these pharmacological agents interact with CCCs is yet to be elucidated. Our structure of K+–Cl− cotransporter (KCC) 1 bound with the VU0463271 inhibitor highlights the extracellular ion translocation pathway as a promising site for developing CCC modulators and defines conformational changes critical for ion transport in KCC1, which are distinct from those observed in related transporter cousins. Cation–chloride cotransporters (CCCs) catalyze electroneutral symport of Cl− with Na+ and/or K+ across membranes. CCCs are fundamental in cell volume homeostasis, transepithelia ion movement, maintenance of intracellular Cl− concentration, and neuronal excitability. Here, we present a cryoelectron microscopy structure of human K+–Cl− cotransporter (KCC)1 bound with the VU0463271 inhibitor in an outward-open state. In contrast to many other amino acid–polyamine–organocation transporter cousins, our first outward-open CCC structure reveals that opening the KCC1 extracellular ion permeation path does not involve hinge-bending motions of the transmembrane (TM) 1 and TM6 half-helices. Instead, rocking of TM3 and TM8, together with displacements of TM4, TM9, and a conserved intracellular loop 1 helix, underlie alternate opening and closing of extracellular and cytoplasmic vestibules. We show that KCC1 intriguingly exists in one of two distinct dimeric states via different intersubunit interfaces. Our studies provide a blueprint for understanding the mechanisms of CCCs and their inhibition by small molecule compounds.
