phosphate transmembrane transporter activity

Term ID
GO:0005315
Synonyms
  • inorganic phosphate transmembrane transporter activity
Definition
Enables the transfer of phosphate ions from one side of a membrane to the other, up its concentration gradient. The transporter binds the solute and undergoes a series of conformational changes. Transport works equally well in either direction and is driven by a chemiosmotic source of energy. Secondary active transporters include symporters and antiporters.
