Transport protein

Categories: Biochemistry stubs | Biochemistry

A transport protein is a protein involved in facilitated diffusion. Changes in the conformation move the binding site to the opposite side of the protein.

There are 3 types of transport proteins, uniporter, symporter/coporter, and antiporter, which facilitate different modes of transport.
