The conserved carboxy-terminal region of the ammonia channel AmtB plays a critical role in channel function.

Molecular membrane biology - 1 Jan 2000

Severi Emmanuele, Javelle Arnaud, Merrick Mike

Abstract excerpt

The ammonium transport (Amt) proteins are a highly conserved family of integral membrane proteins found in eubacteria, archaea, fungi and plants. Genetic, biochemical and bioinformatic analyses suggest that they have a common tertiary structure comprising eleven trans-membrane helices with an N-out, C-in topology. The cytoplasmic C-terminus is variable in length but includes a core region of some 22 residues with...
