CPA superfamily
The cation:proton antiporter superfamily is a superfamily of transport proteins named after one of its constituent members, the monovalent cation:proton antiporter-2.
CPA1 was considered a member of the superfamily until 2010, when it was discovered to in fact be a member of the VIC superfamily. As of April 2016, the CPA superfamily consists of four members:
- Monovalent cation:proton antiporter-2 family
- Malonate:Sodium symporter family
- Putative sulfate exporter family
- Sodium-transporting carboxylic acid decarboxylase family
