Permeation and gating residues in serotonin transporter.
The third transmembrane domain (TM3) of serotonin transporter (SERT) contains two isoleucine residues previously proposed to be involved in binding and transport of serotonin. When Ile-172 was replaced with cysteine, SERT became sensitive to inactivation by externally added [2-(trimethylammonium)ethyl]methanethio-sulfonate (MTSET). The disulfide product of this inactivation was not sensitive to...
متن کاملPermeation through cornea.
The permeability of the cornea to drugs is clinically important because it is the major factor determining the efficacy of topically applied ophthalmic preparations. With this perspective, the present article gives a brief update and overview of corneal structure and proposed mechanisms of permeation. Physiological, physicochemical and formulation factors affecting drug permeation through corne...
متن کاملEffects of cigarette smoke residues from textiles on fibroblasts, neurocytes and zebrafish embryos and nicotine permeation through human skin.
Toxic substances from cigarette smoke can attach to carpets, curtains, clothes or other surfaces and thus may pose risks to affected persons. The phenomenon itself and the potential hazards are discussed controversially, but scientific data are rare. The objective of this study was to examine the potential of textile-bound nicotine for permeation through human skin and to assess the effects of ...
متن کاملAutomatic methods for predicting functionally important residues.
Sequence analysis is often the first guide for the prediction of residues in a protein family that may have functional significance. A few methods have been proposed which use the division of protein families into subfamilies in the search for those positions that could have some functional significance for the whole family, but at the same time which exhibit the specificity of each subfamily (...
