Evidence for a third sodium-binding site in glutamate transporters suggests an ion/substrate coupling model.
Excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs) remove glutamate from synapses. They maintain an efficient synaptic transmission and prevent glutamate from reaching neurotoxic levels. Glutamate transporters couple the uptake of one glutamate to the cotransport of three sodium ions and one proton and the countertransport of one potassium ion. The molecular mechanism for this coupled uptake of glutama...
متن کاملSorting of rat liver and ileal sodium-dependent bile acid transporters in polarized epithelial cells.
The rat ileal apical Na+-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT) and the liver Na+-taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (Ntcp) are members of a new family of anion transporters. These transport proteins share limited sequence homology and almost identical predicted secondary structures but are localized to the apical surface of ileal enterocytes and the sinusoidal surface of hepatocytes, resp...
متن کاملInhibition of ileal sodium-dependent bile acid transport by 2164U90.
Inhibition of the ileal bile acid active transport system, previously shown to be mechanism underlying the hypocholesterolemic activity of 2164U90 in rodents, was further characterized in isolated intestinal preparations from three species. 2164U90 inhibited sodium-dependent transport of taurocholic acid by Caco-2 cells and by monkey and human ileal brush border membrane vesicles in a concentra...
متن کاملCholesterol modulates human intestinal sodium-dependent bile acid transporter.
Bile acids are efficiently absorbed from the intestinal lumen via the ileal apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT). ASBT function is essential for maintenance of cholesterol homeostasis in the body. The molecular mechanisms of the direct effect of cholesterol on human ASBT function and expression are not entirely understood. The present studies were undertaken to establish a suita...
متن کاملElectrogenicity of Na(+)-coupled bile acid transporters.
The Na(+)-bile acid cotransporters NTCP and ASBT are largely responsible for the Na(+)-dependent bile acid uptake in hepatocytes and intestinal epithelial cells, respectively. This review discusses the experimental methods available for demonstrating electrogenicity and examines the accumulating evidence that coupled transport by each of these bile acid transporters is electrogenic. The evidenc...
