Functionally Important Amino Acids in the Arabidopsis Thylakoid Phosphate Transporter: Homology Modeling and Site-Directed Mutagenesis†
The anion transporter 1 (ANTR1) from Arabidopsis thaliana, homologous to the mammalian members of the solute carrier 17 (SLC17) family, is located in the chloroplast thylakoid membrane. When expressed heterologously in Escherichia coli, ANTR1 mediates a Na(+)-dependent active transport of inorganic phosphate (P(i)). The aim of this study was to identify amino acid residues involved in P(i) bind...
متن کاملA vacuolar phosphate transporter essential for phosphate homeostasis in Arabidopsis.
Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is stored in the vacuole, allowing plants to adapt to variable Pi availability in the soil. The transporters that mediate Pi sequestration into vacuole remain unknown, however. Here we report the functional characterization of Vacuolar Phosphate Transporter 1 (VPT1), an SPX domain protein that transports Pi into the vacuole in Arabidopsis. The vpt1 mutant plants were st...
متن کاملPhosphate overload induces podocyte injury via type III Na-dependent phosphate transporter.
Uptake of P(i) at the cellular membrane is essential for the maintenance of cell viability. However, phosphate overload is also stressful for cells and can result in cellular damage. In the present study, we investigated the effects of the transgenic overexpression of type III P(i) transporter Pit-1 to explore the role of extracellular P(i) in glomerular sclerosis during chronic renal disease. ...
متن کاملA Na(+)-dependent nucleoside transporter in microglia.
In the central nervous system, HIV-1 has a defined tropism for brain macrophages and microglia. Nucleoside analog drugs such as zidovudine improve the clinical and neuropsychological functions in HIV-demented patients. Multiple carrier-mediated transport systems can play an important role in the membrane permeation of nucleosides and nucleoside analog drugs in a number of cells. The purpose of ...
متن کاملPhosphate transporter gene family of Arabidopsis thaliana.
Using a high-affinity phosphate transporter gene of Arabidopsis thaliana, PHT1, as a probe, three Arabidopsis homologs were isolated, named PHT4, PHT5 and PHT6, in addition to the previously isolated PHT2 and PHT3. The amino acid sequences deduced from the three nucleotides were 32-42% homologous with microbial phosphate transporters of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (PHO84), Neurospora crassa (PHO-5...
