Urinary organic anion transporter protein profiles in AKI [PDF]
Organic anion transporters (OATs) are located on either the basolateral or the apical membrane of the proximal tubule cell and mediate the absorption and secretion of various drugs and endogenous metabolites. It has been shown that cellular damage in acute kidney injury (AKI) involves three forms of injury: sublethal damage resulting in loss of cell ...

Using small molecules to facilitate exchange of bicarbonate and chloride anions across liposomal membranes [PDF]
Bicarbonate is involved in a wide range of biological processes, which include respiration, regulation of intracellular pH and fertilization. In this study we use a combination of NMR spectroscopy and ion-selective electrode techniques to show that the ...

Engineered Pendrin Protein, an Anion Transporter and Molecular Motor [PDF]
Pendrin and prestin both belong to a distinct anion transporter family called solute carrier protein 26A, or SLC26A. Pendrin (SLC26A4) is a chloride-iodide transporter that is found at the luminal membrane of follicular cells in the thyroid gland as well as in the endolymphatic duct and sac of the inner ear, whereas prestin (SLC26A5) is expressed in ...

Single-channel measurements of an N-acetylneuraminic acid-inducible outer membrane channel in Escherichia coli [PDF]
NanC is an Escherichia coli outer membrane protein involved in sialic acid (Neu5Ac, i.e., N-acetylneuraminic acid) uptake. Expression of the NanC gene is induced and controlled by Neu5Ac. The transport mechanism of Neu5Ac is not known.

Anion transporter: highly cell-type-specific expression of distinct polypeptides and transcripts in erythroid and nonerythroid cells [PDF]
Affinity-purified antibodies and cDNA probes specific for the chicken erythrocyte anion transporter (also referred to as band 3) have been used to demonstrate that this protein is expressed in a highly cell- type-specific manner in the avian kidney ...
