Cloning of the Human Sodium Iodide Symporter
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1996The iodide concentrating activity of the thyroid gland is essential to the production of thyroid hormone and also provides a mechanism for the treatment of thyroid cancer by radioiodine ablation. We report here the nucleotide and amino acid sequence of the human sodium iodide symporter (hNIS), which mediates the iodide uptake activity in the thyroid ...

Photosynthesis Research, 1992
The heterotrophic tissues of the plant are dependent upon carbon and nitrogen import for normal growth and development. In general, oxidized forms of these essential elements are reductively assimilated in the leaf and, subsequently, sucrose and amino acids are transported to the heterotrophic cells in a process known as assimilate partitioning.

Inhibitors of the Proton-Sucrose Symport
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1993Sucrose transporters are important components of the assimilate partitioning pathway in many plants. In the results reported here, we examined the effect of several inhibitors on proton-coupled sucrose transport into plasma membrane vesicles isolated from sugar beet leaf tissue.

Cloning of the Mouse Sodium Iodide Symporter
Thyroid, 2001The iodide-concentrating ability of the thyroid gland is essential to the production of thyroid hormone. We report the nucleotide and amino acid sequence of the mouse sodium iodide symporter (mNIS), which mediates this activity within the thyroid gland.

Mechanism of chloride interaction with neurotransmitter:sodium symporters
Nature, 2007Neurotransmitter:sodium symporters (NSS) have a critical role in regulating neurotransmission and are targets for psychostimulants, anti-depressants and other drugs. Whereas the non-homologous glutamate transporters mediate chloride conductance, in the eukaryotic NSS chloride is transported together with the neurotransmitter.

The chlorella hexose/H+-symporters
2000The physiology, molecular biology, and biochemistry of the inducible hexose uptake protein of Chlorella kessleri is reviewed. The protein encoded by the HUP1 gene is the most intensively studied membrane transporter of plants. Responsible for substrate accumulation up to 1500-fold, it translocates one proton together with one hexose, and the cell ...

Sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) and cytokines
Experimental and Clinical Endocrinology & Diabetes, 2001It has been shown that TSH upregulates rat NIS gene expression in vitro, and this induction can be modulated by cytokines. Analysis of the distribution of rat NIS mRNA ex vivo demonstrated variable levels of NIS transcription in different tissue samples. - IL-1beta and IL-6 have been found to decrease NIS mRNA expression in TSH-stimulated FRTL-5-cells.

The Na+/I− Symporter (NIS): Recent Advances
Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 1998The Na+/I- symporter (NIS) catalyzes the accumulation of iodide into thyroid cells, an essential step in the biosynthesis of thyroid hormones. As a result of the isolation of the rat NIS cDNA, steadfast advances in the study of NIS at the molecular level have resulted in the following accomplishments: generation of high-affinity anti-NIS antibodies ...
