How do ABC transporters drive transport?
Members of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) superfamily are integral membrane proteins that hydrolyze ATP to drive transport. In the last two decades these proteins have been extensively characterized on a genetic and biochemical level, and in recent years high-resolution crystal structures of several nucleotide-binding domains and full-length transporters have extended our knowledge. Here we dis...
متن کاملHarnessing Solute Carrier Transporters for Precision Oncology.
Solute Carrier (SLC) transporters are a large superfamily of transmembrane carriers involved in the regulated transport of metabolites, nutrients, ions and drugs across cellular membranes. A subset of these solute carriers play a significant role in the cellular uptake of many cancer therapeutics, ranging from chemotherapeutics such as antimetabolites, topoisomerase inhibitors, platinum-based d...
متن کاملThe solute carrier 6 family of transporters.
The solute carrier 6 (SLC6) family of the human genome comprises transporters for neurotransmitters, amino acids, osmolytes and energy metabolites. Members of this family play critical roles in neurotransmission, cellular and whole body homeostasis. Malfunction or altered expression of these transporters is associated with a variety of diseases. Pharmacological inhibition of the neurotransmitte...
متن کاملSolute-binding protein-dependent ABC transporters are responsible for solute efflux in addition to solute uptake.
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily is one of the most widespread of all gene families and currently has in excess of 1100 members in organisms ranging from the Archaea to manQ1. The movement of the diverse solutes of ABC transporters has been accepted as being strictly unidirectional, with recent models indicating that they are irreversible. However, contrary to this paradig...
متن کاملHow do we plan movements?:A geometric answer
Human movement is essentially a complex phenomenon. When humans work closely with robots, understanding human motion using robot’s sensors is a very challenging problem. This is partially due to the lack of proper consensus among researchers on which representation to use in such situations. This extended abstract presents a novel kinematic framework to study human intention using hybrid twists...
