Words similar to antiporter

Example sentences for: antiporter

How can you use “antiporter” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

First, it has been shown that activation of NADPH oxidase during a phagocytosis event results in alkalization of phagolysosomal pH in the human neutrophil [ 10 ] . The phagolysosomal pH is influenced by NADPH oxidase activity and to a lesser extent by a Na +/H +antiporter.
Three enzymes are primarily responsible for the maintenance of proton flux across the tonoplast in plants, the vacuolar H +-ATPase, the H +pumping pyrophosphatase [ 48 ] and the Na +/H +antiporter [ 49 50 ] . All three enzymes have been implicated in allowing plants to cope with environmental stress conditions.
Resistance to polymyxin B is also imparted by the absence or masking of critical binding sites required for polycation-mediated permeabilization of the outer membrane [ 54 ] . Thus, attachment of polymyxin B to Yersinia enterocolitica is reduced by steric hindrance generated by the size and/or branched shape of the outer core region of its LPS macromolecule [ 55 ] . Additionally, resistance to cationic peptides can be due to cytoplasmic clearance of the antimicrobial peptide by an efflux pump; e.g., Yersinia resistance to polymyxin B caused by the RosA/RosB efflux pump/potassium antiporter [ 56 ] and Neisseria gonorrhoeae resistance to protegrin PG-1 via an energy-dependent efflux system termed mtr [ 57 ] .
