2.A.2.4.2
Phloem-localized sucrose:H+ symporter, Sut1 (mediates sucrose uptake or efflux dependent on the sucrose gradient and the pmf; Carpaneto et al., 2005). Sut1 is a sucrose protein symporter. Protons can move in the absence of sucrose (Carpaneto et al., 2010), but upon addition of sucrose, it becomes a symporter.  Arg-188 in the rice orthologue and homologues are essential (Sun and Ward 2012).
