| UniProt functional annotation for O29285 | |||
| UniProt code: O29285. |
| Organism: | Archaeoglobus fulgidus (strain ATCC 49558 / VC-16 / DSM 4304 / JCM 9628 / NBRC 100126). | |
| Taxonomy: | Archaea; Euryarchaeota; Archaeoglobi; Archaeoglobales; Archaeoglobaceae; Archaeoglobus. | |
| Function: | Involved in the uptake of ammonium/ammonia (NH(4)(+)/NH(3)) (PubMed:22804733, PubMed:24958855). Transport is electrogenic (PubMed:22804733, PubMed:24958855).

| Biophysicochemical properties: | pH dependence: Transport is pH-dependent, with a steep decline at pH values about 5.0. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24958855}; | |
| Subunit: | Homotrimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16214888, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16511180}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16214888, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16511180}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16214888}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the ammonia transporter channel (TC 1.A.11.2) family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
