Biochemical characterization of the human copper transporter Ctr1.
The trace metal copper is an essential cofactor for a number of biological processes including mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, free radical detoxification, neurotransmitter synthesis and maturation, and iron metabolism. Consequently, copper transport at the cell surface and the delivery of copper to intracellular proteins are critical events in normal physiology. Little is known about ...
متن کاملMolecular pharmacological characterization of the betaine / GABA transporter 1 (
The betaine/GABA transporter 1 (BGT1) is one of the four GABA transporter (GAT) subtypes that have been cloned from the mammalian brain. While its cerebral expression is well documented, its physiological function and therapeutic potential are poorly understood and subject to controversy. This is partly a result of the lack of pharmacological tools of sufficient potency and subtypeselectivity. ...

متن کاملThe Bifidobacterium longum NCIMB 702259T ctr gene codes for a novel cholate transporter.
Preexposure of Bifidobacterium longum NCIMB 702259T to cholate caused increased resistance to cholate, chloramphenicol, and erythromycin. The B. longum ctr gene, encoding a cholate efflux transporter, was transformed into the efflux-negative mutant Escherichia coli KAM3, conferring resistance to bile salts and other antimicrobial compounds and causing the efflux of [14C]cholate.
متن کاملCharacterization of the silicon uptake system and molecular mapping of the silicon transporter gene in rice.
Rice (Oryza sativa L. cv Oochikara) is a typical silicon-accumulating plant, but the mechanism responsible for the high silicon uptake by the roots is poorly understood. We characterized the silicon uptake system in rice roots by using a low-silicon rice mutant (lsi1) and wild-type rice. A kinetic study showed that the concentration of silicon in the root symplastic solution increased with incr...
