Question

A.)What does SAT stand for and how do these proteins work with PAT proteins to move ions across a membrane?

B.)Draw a diagram to illustrate how NO3- can be taken up from the soil solution into a root. Label PAT and SAT transport proteins that are being used, whether energy is required for the transport and where the energy is coming from. Hints: you can asume that the concentration of nitrate inside the root cell is higher than the concentration of nitrate in the soil solution. Also, remember that there will need to be a cencentration gradient for the H+ for the system to work.

C.)How is the NO3- that has now been taken up by the plant assimilated? In other words, what steps occure once the NO3- is inside of the plant to turn it into a usuable form of nitrogen for the plant, what is that useable form and what amino acid is it incorporated into?

Explanation / Answer

Carrier proteins are defined as the proteins that can be moved to open one side at a time by both ATP active transport or facilitated diffusion. Example: SAT, PAT, etc . SAT stands for Starter unit acyl-carrier transacylase.

Secondary active transport: The SAT and PAT aids in the active transport of molecules across the membrane. TP is used indirectly in PAT. The process of working of PAT is as follows:

PAT needs to happen first:
