Arginine-agmatine antiporter in extreme acid resistance in Escherichia coli.
The process of arginine-dependent extreme acid resistance (XAR) is one of several decarboxylase-antiporter systems that protects Escherichia coli and possibly other enteric bacteria from exposure to the strong acid environment of the stomach. Arginine-dependent acid resistance depends on an intracellular proton-utilizing arginine alpha-decarboxylase and a membrane transport protein necessary fo...
متن کاملThe putative plasma membrane Na(+)/H(+) antiporter SOS1 controls long-distance Na(+) transport in plants.
The salt tolerance locus SOS1 from Arabidopsis has been shown to encode a putative plasma membrane Na(+)/H(+) antiporter. In this study, we examined the tissue-specific pattern of gene expression as well as the Na(+) transport activity and subcellular localization of SOS1. When expressed in a yeast mutant deficient in endogenous Na(+) transporters, SOS1 was able to reduce Na(+) accumulation and...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Na+/H+ Antiporter from Yersinia pestis
Yersinia pestis, the bacterium that historically accounts for the Black Death epidemics, has nowadays gained new attention as a possible biological warfare agent. In this study, its Na⁺/H⁺ antiporter is investigated for the first time, by a combination of experimental and computational methodologies. We determined the protein's substrate specificity and pH dependence by fluorescence measurement...
متن کاملAmiloride-sensitive Na+-H+ antiporter in Escherichia coli.
In everted vesicles of Escherichia coli, delta pH caused by H+ efflux through the Na+/H+ antiporter was measured by using a fluorescent dye. Amiloride inhibited the activity of the Na+/H+ antiporter. Kinetic studies showed that amiloride competed with Na+. The inhibition constant of 40 microM was obtained.
متن کاملRegulation of Na+/H+ antiporter in trout red blood cells.
The trout red blood cell Na+/H+ antiporter (beta NHE) plays two interesting properties: it is the only NHE own to be activated by cyclic AMP, and the activation process is followed by a desensitisation of the transport system itself. Cloning and expression of beta NHE have provided inificant information about Na+/H+ activation, in particular that activation by cyclic AMP is directly dependent u...
