F−/Cl− selectivity in CLCF-type F−/H+ antiporters
Many bacterial species protect themselves against environmental F(-) toxicity by exporting this anion from the cytoplasm via CLC(F) F(-)/H(+) antiporters, a subclass of CLC superfamily anion transporters. Strong F(-) over Cl(-) selectivity is biologically essential for these membrane proteins because Cl(-) is orders of magnitude more abundant in the biosphere than F(-). Sequence comparisons rev...
متن کاملBacterial and plant antiporters.
Articles in this chapter emphasize the phenomenon of ion exchange across biomembranes. This topic has been of interest at least since 1947, when Hans Ussing articulated his model of ‘exchange diffusion’ to account for an unexpected elevation in the rate of 22Na+ efflux from skeletal muscle (Ussing, 1947). Ussing had tried to measure net Na+ movement by following tracer flux, but found that this...
متن کاملUniporters, symporters and antiporters.
Transporters are a diverse group of membrane proteins that facilitate the movement of water-soluble solutes through the lipid bilayer of biological membranes. The least complex transporters are the uniporters (Kakuda and MacLeod, 1994). They simply facilitate the diffusion of their substrates across membranes and dissipate substrate gradients that arise as the result of other processes. Uniport...
