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 ...

Structure-Affinity Relationships of Substrates for the Neutral Amino Acid Transport System in Rabbit Ileum

open access: yesThe Journal of General Physiology, 1974
The apparent affinities of various amino acids for the neutral amino acid transport system in rabbit ileum were determined by measuring the inhibition of L-methionine-14C influx across the brush border membrane.

Cationic amino acid transport across the blood-brain barrier is mediated exclusively by system y+

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2006
Cationic amino acid (CAA) transport is brought about by two families of proteins that are found in various tissues: Cat (CAA transporter), referred to as system y+, and Bat [broad-scope amino acid (AA) transporter], which comprises systems b0,+, B0,+, and y+L.

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.

Transport of proteins into mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Translocational intermediates of precursor proteins of ATPase F1β subunit and cytochrome c1 across mitochondrial membranes were analyzed using two different approaches, transport at low temperature and transport after binding of precursor proteins to ...

Effect of oxygen tension on the amino acid utilisation of human embryonic stem cells

open access: yes, 2014
Background/aims: human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are a potential source of cells for treatment of many degenerative diseases, but in culture have a propensity to spontaneously differentiate, possibly due to suboptimal conditions. Culture at low oxygen

Evidence for a close link between the thyroid hormone transport system and the aromatic amino acid transport system T in erythrocytes.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1990
The transport of [125I]triiodothyronine ([125I]T3) and [3H]tryptophan ([3H]Trp) by washed rat erythrocytes was studied at 25 degrees C in the presence of leucine in order to block the neutral amino acid transport system L.

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

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 ...

Structure and function of amino acid and peptide transport proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
All living cells are enclosed by biological membranes that separate the interior cytoplasm from the outer environment. Composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins biological membranes act as insulators and filters.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
