CorA metal ion transporter

The CorA transport system is the primary Mg²⁺ influx system of Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli.^[2][3] CorA is ubiquitous in the Bacteria and Archaea. There are also eukaryotic members of the family localized to the mitochondrial membrane such as MRS2 and Lpe10 in yeast.
