Identification and characterization of orthologs of AtNHX5 and AtNHX6 in Brassica napus
Improving crop species by breeding for salt tolerance or introducing salt tolerant traits is one method of increasing crop yields in saline affected areas. The model plant species Arabidopsis thaliana has been extensively studied and there is substantial

Crystal structures reveal the molecular basis of ion translocation in sodium/proton antiporters [PDF]
To fully understand the transport mechanism of Na+/H+ exchangers, it is necessary to clearly establish the global rearrangements required to facilitate ion translocation. Currently, two different transport models have been proposed.

Energy-converting [NiFe] hydrogenases in archaea and bacteria: insights into the energy-transducing mechanism [PDF]
In recent years a group of multisubunit membrane-bound [NiFe] hydrogenases has been identified in a variety of anaerobic or facultative anaerobic microorganisms.

Role of the yeast multidrug transporter Qdr2 in cation homeostasis and the oxidative stress response [PDF]
We have identified QDR2 in a screening for genes able to confer tolerance to sodium and/or lithium stress upon overexpression. Qdr2 is a multidrug transporter of the major facilitator superfamily, originally described for its ability to transport the ...

Overproduction of the membrane-bound [NiFe]-hydrogenase in Thermococcus kodakarensis and its effect on hydrogen production [PDF]
The hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis can utilize sugars or pyruvate for growth. In the absence of elemental sulfur, the electrons via oxidation of these substrates are accepted by protons, generating molecular hydrogen (H2).

Effect of thyroparathyroidectomy on urinary acidification in diabetic rats [PDF]
In previous studies we have shown stimulation of renal acid excretion in the proximal tubules of rats with diabetes of short duration, with no important alterations in glomerular hemodynamics; on the other hand, in thyroparathyroidectomized rats (TPTX ...

Structure of the CLC-1 chloride channel from Homo sapiens. [PDF]
CLC channels mediate passive Cl- conduction, while CLC transporters mediate active Cl- transport coupled to H+ transport in the opposite direction. The distinction between CLC-0/1/2 channels and CLC transporters seems undetectable by amino acid sequence.
