Impaired nutrient signaling and body weight control in a Na⁺ neutral amino acid cotransporter (Slc6a19)-deficient mouse [PDF]
, 2015 Amino acid uptake in the intestine and kidney is mediated by a variety of amino acid transporters. To understand the role of epithelial neutral amino acid uptake in whole body homeostasis, we analyzed mice lacking the apical broad-spectrum neutral (0 ...

Understanding the process of envelope glycoprotein incorporation into virions in simian and feline immunodeficiency viruses [PDF]
, 2014 The lentiviral envelope glycoproteins (Env) mediate virus entry by interacting with specific receptors present at the cell surface, thereby determining viral tropism and pathogenesis.

AtGAT1, a High Affinity Transporter for γ-Aminobutyric Acid in Arabidopsis thaliana*
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2006 Functional characterization of Arabidopsis thaliana GAT1 in heterologous expression systems, i.e. Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Xenopus laevis oocytes, revealed that AtGAT1 (At1g08230) codes for an H+-driven, high affinity γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA ...

A guide to plasma membrane solute carrier proteins
The FEBS Journal, 2020 This review aims to serve as an introduction to the solute carrier proteins (SLC) superfamily of transporter proteins and their roles in human cells. The SLC superfamily currently includes 458 transport proteins in 65 families that carry a wide variety ...

Molecular basis of accessible plasma membrane cholesterol recognition by the GRAM domain of GRAMD1b
EMBO Journal, 2021 Cholesterol is essential for cell physiology. Transport of the “accessible” pool of cholesterol from the plasma membrane (PM) to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by ER‐localized GRAMD1 proteins (GRAMD1a/1b/1c) contributes to cholesterol homeostasis ...
