MEMBRANE TRANSPORT CARRIERS

Annual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology, 1996
▪ Abstract  Plant and fungal membrane proteins catalyzing the transmembrane translocation of small molecules without directly using ATP or acting as channels are discussed in this review. Facilitators, ion-cotransporters, and exchange translocators mainly for sugars, amino acids, and ions that have been cloned and characterized from Saccharomyces ...

The cytoskeleton and membrane transport

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1994
This review summarizes recent studies demonstrating that the actin-based cytoskeleton regulates the activity of many ion channels and transport proteins. Stretch-activated ion channels; channels conductive to chloride, to sodium, and to potassium; electroneutral transport proteins, including the Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl-cotransporter, the Na+/H+ exchanger, and ...

Plant membrane transport

Current Biology, 1992
Recent developments in plant membrane transport, particularly concerning the vacuolar and plasma membranes, have increased our understanding of molecular aspects of primary pumps, carrier systems and ion channels.

Overview of Membrane Transport

2005
Pharmaceutical scientists increasingly utilize transporters for drug delivery and targeting. The biological barriers to drug delivery can basically be divided into epithelial, endothelial, elimination, and target cell barriers. Membrane transporters play an important role in drug entrance and exit from the body.

Phospholipids and membrane transport

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry, 1980
The ability of membrane lipids to adopt nonbilayer configurations suggests dynamic roles for lipids in many functional abilities of biological membranes. In this work evidence supporting the involvement of lipids in three types of membrane transport process is presented and discussed.

Membrane transport of cobalamin

2022
A wide variety of organisms encode cobalamin-dependent enzymes catalyzing essential metabolic reactions, but the cofactor cobalamin (vitamin B12) is only synthesized by a subset of bacteria and archaea. The biosynthesis of cobalamin is complex and energetically costly, making cobalamin variants and precursors metabolically valuable.

Membrane Transport of Folates

2003
The chapter reviews the current understanding of the transport mechanisms for folates in mammalian cells--their molecular identities and organization, tissue expression, regulation, structures, and their kinetic and thermodynamic properties. This encompasses a variety of diverse processes.

Membrane Transport of Proteins

Nature New Biology, 1972
FACILITATED diffusion of small organic molecules across cell membranes is thought to be carrier-mediated in part because the process displays reaction kinetics. Models describing carrier transport assume that the transported molecule is associated with the membrane, reacting presumably with membrane proteins, and is then moved across the barrier.

Polyamines and membrane transporters

Amino Acids, 2013
In recent years, our understanding of the importance of membrane transporters (MTs) in the disposition of and response to drugs has increased significantly. MTs are proteins that regulate the transport of endogenous molecules and xenobiotics across the cell membrane.
