Bacterial Amino Acid Transport Systems

  • Chapter
The Enzymes of Biological Membranes

Abstract

The roles of the cell membrane as both a permeability barrier to foreign substances and as a selective filter which admits nutrient molecules have been recognized as fundamentally important to animal physiology since the first decade of this century. It was not until the 1950’s, however, that microbiologists recognized that bacteria possess membrane transport systems, distinct from their metabolic enzymes, that mediate the uptake of amino acids and other nutrients. The work of Cohen and Monod (1957) established modern research on bacterial membrane transport. While much of this early work focused on transport of sugars, Gale provided the first evidence for accumulation of amino acids by bacteria during this era (Gale, 1947, 1954).
