Term Name: | secondary active sulfate transmembrane transporter activity |
---|---|
Synonyms: | secondary active sulphate transmembrane transporter activity, sulfate porter activity, sulphate porter activity |
Definition: | Enables the secondary active transfer of sulfate from one side of a membrane to the other. Secondary active transport is the transfer of a solute across a membrane, up its concentration gradient. The transporter binds the solute and undergoes a series of conformational changes. Transport works equally well in either direction and is driven by a chemiosmotic source of energy. Secondary active transporters include symporters and antiporters. |
