Prokaryotic Solute/Sodium Symporters: Versatile Functions and Mechanisms of a Transporter Family
The solute/sodium symporter family (SSS family; TC 2.A.21; SLC5) consists of integral membrane proteins that use an existing sodium gradient to drive the uphill transport of various solutes, such as sugars, amino acids, vitamins, or ions across the membrane. This large family has representatives in...
