Synthesis of borate cross-linked rhamnogalacturonan II
In the present review, we describe current knowledge about synthesis of borate crosslinked rhamnogalacturonan II (RG-II) and it physiological roles. RG-II is a portion of pectic polysaccharide with high complexity, present in primary cell wall.

Functional expression of TcoAT1 reveals it to be a P1-type nucleoside transporter with no capacity for diminazene uptake [PDF]
It has long been established that the Trypanosoma brucei TbAT1/P2 aminopurine transporter is involved in the uptake of diamidine and arsenical drugs including pentamidine, diminazene aceturate and melarsoprol.

A Node-Expressed Transporter OsCCX2 Is Involved in Grain Cadmium Accumulation of Rice
Excessive cadmium (Cd) accumulation in grains of rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a risk to food security. The transporters in the nodes of rice are involved in the distribution of mineral elements including toxic elements to different tissues such as grains ...

Bidirectional regulation of glial potassium buffering – glioprotection versus neuroprotection
Glia modulate neuronal excitability and seizure sensitivity by maintaining potassium and water homeostasis. A salt inducible kinase 3 (SIK3)-regulated gene expression program controls the glial capacity to buffer K+ and water in Drosophila, however ...

Map-compatible decomposition of transport paths [PDF]
In the Monge-Kantorovich transport problem, the transport cost is expressed in terms of transport maps or transport plans, which play crucial roles there. A variant of the Monge-Kantorovich problem is the ramified (branching) transport problem that models branching transport systems via transport paths.

Expression profiling of ascorbic acid–related transporters in human and mouse eyes [PDF]
PURPOSE: Ascorbic acid (AsA) is an important antioxidant in the eye. Ascorbic acid is usually transported by sodium-dependent AsA transporters (SVCTs), and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) by glucose transporters (GLUTs).
