Solute transport prokaryotes

Hebbeln, R, Rodionov, D.A., Alfandega, A., and Eitinger, T. (2007) Biotin uptake in prokaryotes by solute transporters with an optional ATP-binding cassette-containing module. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 104, 2909-2914. 

Figure 3. Examples of major types of uptake mechanisms realised in prokaryotic outer membranes (a to c) and cytoplasmic membranes (a, and d to 1). The solutes to be transported are shown by filled circles x symbolises another solute which is transported in the same or in the opposite direction. In systems h-k, uptake is driven by the cleavage of ATP to ADP and phosphate. One type of uptake system, 1, depends on the energy-rich molecule phosphoenolpyruvate shown as PEP .
