The family of Na+/Cl- neurotransmitter transporters.
The termination of neurotransmission is achieved by rapid uptake of the released neurotransmitter by specific high-affinity neurotransmitter transporters. Most of these transporters are encoded by a family of genes (Na+/Cl- transporters) having a similar membrane topography of 12 transmembrane helices. An evolutionary tree revealed five distinct subfamilies: gamma-aminobutyric acid transporters...
متن کاملElectrogenicity of Na(+)-coupled bile acid transporters.
The Na(+)-bile acid cotransporters NTCP and ASBT are largely responsible for the Na(+)-dependent bile acid uptake in hepatocytes and intestinal epithelial cells, respectively. This review discusses the experimental methods available for demonstrating electrogenicity and examines the accumulating evidence that coupled transport by each of these bile acid transporters is electrogenic. The evidenc...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of the intestinal luminal Na⁺ and Cl⁻ transporters.
The epithelial apical membrane Na+/H+ exchangers [NHE (sodium hydrogen exchanger)2 and NHE3] and Cl-/HCO3- exchangers [DRA (down-regulated in adenoma) and PAT-1 (putative anion transporter 1)] are key luminal membrane transporters involved in electroneutral NaCl absorption in the mammalian intestine. During the last decade, there has been a surge of studies focusing on the short-term regulation...
متن کاملIdentification of Functionally Distinct Na-HCO3 Co-Transporters in Colon
Na-HCO3 cotransport (NBC) regulates intracellular pH (pHi) and HCO3 secretion in rat colon. NBC has been characterized as a 5,5'-diisothiocyanato-2-2'-stilbene (DIDS)-sensitive transporter in several tissues, while the colonic NBC is sensitive to both amiloride and DIDS. In addition, the colonic NBC has been identified as critical for pHi regulation as it is activated by intravesicular acid pH....
متن کاملMolecular determinants of substrate selectivity in Na+-dependent nucleoside transporters.
In mammalian cells, the salvage of purine and pyrimidine nucleosides is mediated by both facilitated and Na+-dependent nucleoside transporters. These transporters also play important roles in the transmembrane flux of therapeutic nucleoside analogs, which are widely used in the treatment of cancer and viral infections. The N1, N2, and N3 Na+-dependent nucleoside transporters differ in terms of ...
