Does active transport require a carrier protein?

  • Discussion Fanatics

    Active transport is the movement of a substance across a membrane against its concentration gradient. A carrier protein is required to move particles from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration. These carrier proteins have receptors that bind to a specific molecule (substrate) needing transport.
