Secondary active transporters of the SLC11/NRAMP family catalyse the uptake of iron and manganese into cells. These proteins are highly conserved across all kingdoms of life and thus likely share a ...
The alternative to active transport is passive transport, which uses kinetic energy only to move the molecules. Passive transport can only move molecules from a region of higher concentration to lower ...
TTUHSC’s Lan Guan, M.D., Ph.D., recently received a five-year, $1.96 million MIRA R35 grant (“An integrated approach to understanding the molecular mechanisms of cation-coupled transport”). To help ...
