Mechanisms of Na+ uptake from freshwater habitats in animals

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Life in fresh water is osmotically and energetically challenging for living organisms, requiring increases in ion uptake from dilute environments.

Comparative Physiological and Gene Expression Analyses Provide Insights into Ion Transports and Osmotic Adjustment of Sweet Sorghum under Salt Stress

open access: yesAgronomy
Sweet sorghum is an important sugar crop and forage with a strong tolerance to soil salinity. We have previously analyzed the ion accumulation traits and transcriptome of a sweet sorghum cultivar under NaCl treatments.

The molecular mechanism of ion-dependent gating in secondary transporters. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2013
LeuT-like fold Na-dependent secondary active transporters form a large family of integral membrane proteins that transport various substrates against their concentration gradient across lipid membranes, using the free energy stored in the downhill ...

The Ion Transporter NKCC1 Links Cell Volume to Cell Mass Regulation by Suppressing mTORC1

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: mTORC1 regulates cellular growth and is activated by growth factors and by essential amino acids such as Leu. Leu enters cells via the Leu transporter LAT1-4F2hc (LAT1).

Engineered MATE multidrug transporters reveal two functionally distinct ion-coupling pathways in NorM from Vibrio cholerae

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Raturi and Nair et al. describe functional ion pathways within the MATE transporter NorM from Vibrio cholerae (NorM-VC). By creating chimeric proteins and mutants of NorM-VC and NorM-PS, they dissect the localisation of ion-coupling events and roles of ...

Expression of Ion Transporters and Na+/K+-ATPase and H+-ATPase Activities in the Gills and Kidney of Silver Catfish (Rhamdia quelen) Exposed to Different pHs

open access: yesFishes, 2022
Exposure to acidic and alkaline pHs results in an ionic imbalance. Cellular responses involved in osmoregulation in silver catfish exposed to different pHs (5.5, 7.5, and 9.0) for 24 h were evaluated. The gills and kidney were collected to measure Na+/K+-

An intracellular transporter mitigates the CO2‐induced decline in iron content in Arabidopsis shoots

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study identifies a gene encoding a transmembrane protein, MIC, which contributes to the reduction of shoot Fe content observed in plants under elevated CO2. MIC is a putative Fe transporter localized to the Golgi and endosomal compartments. Its post‐translational regulation in roots may represent a potential target for improving plant nutrition ...

Lotus japonicus LjKUP Is Induced Late During Nodule Development and Encodes a Potassium Transporter of the Plasma Membrane

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2004
The KUP family of potassium transporters in plants is large but poorly characterized. We isolated and characterized the first KUP transporter from a legume, LjKUP of Lotus japonicus.

Structural mechanism of intracellular autoregulation of zinc uptake in ZIP transporters

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Zinc is an essential micronutrient that supports all living organisms through regulating numerous biological processes. However, the mechanism of uptake regulation by intracellular Zn2+ status remains unclear.

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.
