Abstract
The mrp homolog gene cluster mrpCD1D2EFGAB (Ap-mrp) was found in a halotolerant cyanobacterium, Aphanothece halophytica, amplified, and expressed in Escherichia coli mutant TO114. Ap-mrp complemented the salt-sensitive phenotype of TO114 and exhibited Na(+)/H(+) and Li(+)/H(+) exchange activities, indicating that Ap-Mrp functions as a Na(+)/H(+) antiporter.Entities:
