Molecular physiology of water balance. [PDF]
In this article, the authors review the classic, integrative principles of water balance. They use this model to discuss the role of underlying genes and gene products (proteins) in water balance and to provide a mechanistic basis for decisions about related disorders.

The Sodium/Iodide Symporter (NIS): Molecular Physiology and Preclinical and Clinical Applications. [PDF]
Active iodide (I-) transport in both the thyroid and some extrathyroidal tissues is mediated by the Na+/I- symporter (NIS). In the thyroid, NIS-mediated I- uptake plays a pivotal role in thyroid hormone (TH) biosynthesis. THs are key during embryonic and

Molecular physiology of mammalian glucokinase. [PDF]
The glucokinase (GCK) gene was one of the first candidate genes to be identified as a human "diabetes gene". Subsequently, important advances were made in understanding the impact of GCK in the regulation of glucose metabolism. Structure elucidation by crystallography provided insight into the kinetic properties of GCK.

Molecular physiology of enteric opioid receptors. [PDF]
Opioid drugs have powerful antidiarrheal effects and many patients taking these drugs for chronic pain relief experience chronic constipation that can progress to opioid-induced bowel dysfunction.

A new window into the molecular physiology of membrane proteins. [PDF]
Integral membrane proteins comprise ∼25% of the human proteome. Yet, our understanding of their molecular physiology is still in its infancy. This can be attributed to two factors: the experimental challenges that arise from the difficult chemical nature
