Major facilitator family : ウィキペディア英語版 | Major facilitator superfamily
The major facilitator superfamily (MFS) is a class of membrane transport proteins that facilitate movement of small solutes across cell membranes in response to chemiosmotic gradients. ==Function== The major facilitator superfamily (MFS) are membrane proteins which are expressed ubiquitously in all kingdoms of life for the import or export of target substrates. The MFS family was originally believed to function primarily in the uptake of sugars but subsequent studies revealed that drugs, metabolites, oligosaccharides, amino acids and oxyanions were all transported by MFS family members. These protein energetically drive transport utilizing the electrochemical gradient of the target substrate (uniporter), or act as a cotransporter where transport is coupled to the movement of a second substrate.
