Specificity of the AgSUT1 Suc carrier
Carrier | Absorption |
---|---|
% | |
None | 100 |
5 mm Suc | 65.4 ± 0.4 |
5 mm Mannitol | 90.0 ± 1.2 |
5 mm Maltose | 81.6 ± 1.2 |
5 mm Raffinose | 74.7 ± 1.6 |
2 mm α-Phenylglucoside | 32.0 ± 1.1 |
Sugars were added 30 s prior to labeled Suc. All transport tests were performed at 250 μm Suc, pH 4.5, and incubation time was 3 min. The results are the means ± sd of three independent experiments (three replicates per experiment).
