Abstract: We describe here a simple strategy to characterize transport specificity of NADH:quinone oxidoreductases, using Na+-translocating (NQR) and H+-translocating (NDH-1) enzymes of the soil bacterium Azotobacter vinelandii as the models. Submillimolar concentrations of Na+ and Li+… read more here.
