Anion transport by the cochlear motor protein prestin
The Journal of Physiology, 2011 Non‐technical summary Cochlear inner hair cells transform acoustic signals into electric signals. Another type of hair cells, outer hair cells, actively amplifies sensory signals and thus contributes to the exquisite sensitivity of the human auditory system.

Transport activity of AE3 chloride/bicarbonate anion-exchange proteins and their regulation by intracellular pH. [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1999 Plasma membrane Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) anion-exchange (AE) proteins contribute to regulation of intracellular pH (pH(i)). We characterized the transport activity and regulation by pH(i) of full-length AE3 and the cardiac isoform, AE3c, both of which are ...

Identification and characterization of the three members of the CLC family of anion transport proteins in Trypanosoma brucei. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2017 CLC type anion transport proteins are homo-dimeric or hetero-dimeric with an integrated transport function in each subunit. We have identified and partially characterized three members of this family named TbVCL1, TbVCL2 and TbVCL3 in Trypanosoma brucei.

The Human Organic Anion Transport Protein SLC21A6 Is Not Sufficient for Bilirubin Transport [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003 A recent study (Cui, Y., Konig, J., Leier, I., Buchholz, U., and Keppler, D. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 9626-9630) suggests that human OATP2 (SLC21A6), also known as OATP-C and LST1, mediates hepatic bilirubin transport. Because of methodologic concerns, this study was designed to examine this issue using a bilirubin transport assay that was validated ...

Biosynthesis of the erythrocyte anion transport protein. [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1981 The biosynthesis of the erythrocyte anion transport protein (Band III) was studied in erythroid precursor cells obtained from the spleens of anemic mice. Newly synthesized Band III was inserted during or immediately after translation into rough endoplasmic reticulum membranes.

The human erythrocyte anion-transport protein. Partial amino acid sequence, conformation and a possible molecular mechanism for anion exchange. [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1983 The N-terminal 72 residues of an integral membrane fragment, P5, of the human erythrocyte anion-transport protein, which is known to be directly involved in the anion-exchange process, was shown to have the following amino acid sequence: Met-Val-Pro-Lys ...

Cloning and expression ofSLC10A4, a putative organic anion transport protein
World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2006 To determine if novel bile acid transporters may be expressed in human tissues.SLC10A1 (NTCP) was used as a probe to search the NCBI database for homology to previously uncharacterized ESTs. The homology search identified an EST (termed SLC10A4) that shares sequence identity with SLC10A1 and SLC10A2 (ASBT).

The choroid plexus epithelium is the site of the organic anion transport protein in the brain [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1997 The mRNA for organic anion transport protein (oatp) was previously shown to be present in abundance in liver and kidney, and in small amounts in brain. Data obtained from experiments with reverse transcriptase–PCR techniques and in situ hybridization analysis showed that the oatp mRNA is present within the brain ...

Transport of organic anions by multidrug resistance-associated protein in the erythrocyte.
Acta Biochimica Polonica, 2000 The active transport of oxidized glutathione and glutathione S-conjugates has been demonstrated for the first time in erythrocytes and this cell remained the main subject of research on the "glutathione S-conjugate pump" for years. Further studies identifled the "glutathione S-conjugate pump" as multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP).
