Term Name: phosphate transmembrane transporter activity
Synonyms: inorganic phosphate transmembrane transporter activity
Definition: Enables the transfer of phosphate ions from one side of a membrane to the other, up its concentration gradient. The transporter binds the solute and undergoes a series of conformational changes. Transport works equally well in either direction and is driven by a chemiosmotic source of energy. Secondary active transporters include symporters and antiporters.
