The magnesium transport ATPases of Salmonella typhimurium

摘要: Publisher Summary Mg 2+ is one of the most abundant cations, second to potassium, and divalent cation. This chapter provides an overview previous studies on transport in enteric bacteria transporting ATPases Salmonella typhimurium . important for many aspects cellular function. Structurally it a major stabilizing factor all biomembranes ribosomal translation apparatus, binds nucleic acids proteins help maintain specific conformations. The gram negative bacterium used as model system study transmembrane transport, because (1) general, bacterial systems are homologous structure mechanism eukaryotic systems, (2) has been studied great detail genetic techniques prokaryotic unmatched by any system, (3) related bacterium, E.coli, provide background knowledge.
