Abstract
We here describe the transporter classification (TC) system that provides a rational means of classifying all transmembrane transport systems found in living organisms. The availability of this system provides a framework for the use of bioinformatic technologies to answer fundamental questions about the functions, mechanisms, and evolutionary pathways taken for the appearance of these systems. Such advances are discussed.Mesh:
