Transporter for ammonium (both charged and uncharged NH3 and NH4) to use as a nitrogen source. The affinity of MEP2 is about twenty times higher than that of MEP1. MEP3 has the lowest affinity. Ref.1 Ref.4

Subcellular location

Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Miscellaneous

Present with 3820 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. Ref.5

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ammonium transporter (TC 2.A.49) family. [View classification]
