Structure of cytosine transport protein CodB provides insight into nucleobase‐cation symporter 1 mechanism [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 2022 AbstractCodB is a cytosine transporter from the Nucleobase‐Cation‐Symport‐1 (NCS1) transporter family, a member of the widespread LeuT superfamily. Previous experiments with the nosocomial pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa have shown CodB as also important for the uptake of 5‐fluorocytosine, which has been suggested as a novel drug to combat ...

Cation permeability in CorA family of proteins
Scientific Reports, 2020 CorA proteins belong to 2-TM-GxN family of membrane proteins, and play a major role in Mg2+ transport in prokaryotes and eukaryotic mitochondria. The selection of substrate is believed to occur via the signature motif GxN, however there is no consensus ...

Protein phylogenetic analysis of Ca2+/cation antiporters and insights into their evolution in plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012 Cation transport is a critical process in all organisms and is essential for mineral nutrition, ion stress tolerance, and signal transduction. Transporters that are members of the Ca2+/Cation Antiporter (CaCA) superfamily are involved in the transport of

Prediction of membrane transport proteins and their substrate specificities using primary sequence information. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Membrane transport proteins (transporters) move hydrophilic substrates across hydrophobic membranes and play vital roles in most cellular functions. Transporters represent a diverse group of proteins that differ in topology, energy coupling mechanism ...

The functions of plant cation/proton antiporters
Biologia Plantarum, 2018 The cation/H+ exchange is a basic process in transmembrane transport. The acquisition of genome sequences has now established that plants possess genes encoding a large number of cation/proton antiporter 1 (CPA1) proteins, few of which have been ...

Phylogenetic Diversity and Physiological Roles of Plant Monovalent Cation/H+ Antiporters
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 The processes of plant nutrition, stress tolerance, plant growth, and development are strongly dependent on transport of mineral nutrients across cellular membranes. Plant membrane transporters are key components of these processes.
