Identification
Name:Arginine/agmatine antiporter
Synonyms:Not Available
Gene Name:adiC
Enzyme Class:Not Available
Biological Properties
General Function:Involved in amino acid transmembrane transporter activity
Specific Function:Major component of the acid-resistance (AR) system allowing enteric pathogens to survive the acidic environment in the stomach. Exchanges extracellular arginine for its intracellular decarboxylation product agmatine (Agm) thereby expelling intracellular protons
Cellular Location:Cell inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
