New insights into the acetate uptake transporter (AceTr) family: Unveiling amino acid residues critical for specificity and activity.

2.3 Alignment and protein topology prediction To identify conserved amino acid residues within the AceTr family members that are possibly significant for transporter function, protein sequences of AceTr members from S. cerevisiae : Ato1 ( KZV12856.1 ), Ato2 ( KZV08629.1 ), and Ato3 ( KZV12628.1 ), as well as protein sequences of AceTr members from other organisms that were characterized as acetate transporters: Gpr1 ( XP_502188.1 ), AcpA ( Q5B2K4 .1), SatP_Ec ( AAC73121.1 ), and SatP_Ck ( QQC78103.1 ) were aligned using the PSI/TM-Coffee server for transmembrane proteins [29] .
