Ammonium/methylammonium transport (Amt) proteins facilitate diffusion of NH3 bidirectionally

The ammonium/methylammonium transport (Amt) proteins of enteric bacteria and their homologues, the methylammonium/ammonium permeases of Saccharomyces cerevisiae , are required for fast growth at very low concentrations of the uncharged species NH 3 . For example, they are essential at low ammonium (...
