Uptake of Manganese from the Manganese-Lysine Complex in Primary Chicken Intestinal Epithelial Cells

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
Organic manganese (Mn) sources can replace inorganic Mn as dietary Mn supplements in poultry. To compare the uptake of Mn from the Mn-lysine complex (MnLys) and MnSO4, we first established the primary chicken intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) model and ...

Angiotensin II Stimulates System y+ and Cationic Amino Acid Transporter Gene Expression in Cultured Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1995
The effect of angiotensin II (Ang II) on the transport of cationic amino acids has been examined in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) isolated from rat aortae. Ang II stimulated the uptake rates of radiolabeled arginine and lysine in a time- and concentration-dependent manner.

Amino acid transporter genes are essential for FLO11-dependent and FLO11-independent biofilm formation and invasive growth in saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Amino acids can induce yeast cell adhesion but how amino acids are sensed and signal the modulation of the FLO adhesion genes is not clear. We discovered that the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK evolved invasive growth ability under ...

Amino acid uptake in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Nitrogen (N) is essential for all living organisms and is considered to be the limiting factor for plant growth in many ecosystems. Although generally believed to rely on mineral N to fulfill their N needs, plants have also been found to access organic N

Downregulation of SLC7A7 Triggers an Inflammatory Phenotype in Human Macrophages and Airway Epithelial Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI) is a recessively inherited aminoaciduria caused by mutations of SLC7A7, the gene encoding y+LAT1 light chain of system y+L for cationic amino acid transport. The pathogenesis of LPI is still unknown.

Important differences in cationic amino acid transport by lysosomal system c and system y+ of the human fibroblast.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1987
Superficial similarities led us to extend our designation for the transport of the plasma membrane for cationic amino acids, y+, to the lysosomal system also serving for such amino acids. Further study on the purified lysosomes of human skin fibroblasts leads us now to redesignate the lysosomal system as c (for cationic), rather than y+, to emphasize ...

Diel rhythmicity in amino acid uptake by Prochlorococcus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The marine cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus, the most abundant phototrophic organism on Earth, numerically dominates the phytoplankton in nitrogen (N)-depleted oceanic gyres.

Obligatory amino acid exchange via systems bo,+-like and y+L-like. A tertiary active transport mechanism for renal reabsorption of cystine and dibasic amino acids.

open access: yesThe Journal of biological chemistry, 1996
Mutations in the rBAT gene cause type I cystinuria, a common inherited aminoaciduria of cystine and dibasic amino acids due to their defective renal and intestinal reabsorption (Calonge, M. J., Gasparini, P., Chillarón, J., Chillón, M., Gallucci, M., Rousaud, F., Zelante, L., Testar, X., Dallapiccola, B., Di Silverio, F., Barceló, P., Estivill, X ...

The Binding Specificity of Amino Acid Transport System y + L in Human Erythrocytes is Altered by Monovalent Cations

open access: yesJournal of Membrane Biology, 1996
System y+L is a broad-scope amino acid transporter which binds and translocates cationic and neutral amino acids. Na+ replacement with K+ does not affect lysine transport, but markedly decreases the affinity of the transporter for L-leucine and L-glutamine.

Cloning and functional expression of a cDNA from rat jejunal epithelium encoding a protein (4F2hc) with system y+L amino acid transport activity [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1998
Two different protein families, designated CAT (cationic amino acid transporter) and BAT (broad-specificity amino acid transporter) mediate the plasma membrane transport of cationic amino acids in animal cells. CAT transporters have 12-14 transmembrane domains and are selective for cationic amino acids.
