چکیده

The C3-symmetric triamide selectively transports NO3- anions across lipid vesicles: this H+-NO3- co-transporter alters the pH inside of liposomes experiencing a NO3-/Cl- gradient.

Structure–Activity Relationships in Tripodal Transmembrane Anion Transporters: The Effect of Fluorination

A series of easy-to-make fluorinated tripodal anion transporters containing urea and thiourea groups have been prepared and their anion transport properties studied. Vesicle anion transport assays using ion-selective electrodes show that this class of compound is capable of transporting chloride through a lipid bilayer via a variety of mechanisms, including chloride/H(+) cotransport and chlorid...

A Single-Pore Residue Renders the Arabidopsis Root Anion Channel SLAH2 Highly Nitrate Selective.

In contrast to animal cells, plants use nitrate as a major source of nitrogen. Following the uptake of nitrate, this major macronutrient is fed into the vasculature for long-distance transport. The Arabidopsis thaliana shoot expresses the anion channel SLOW ANION CHANNEL1 (SLAC1) and its homolog SLAC1 HOMOLOGOUS3 (SLAH3), which prefer nitrate as substrate but cannot exclude chloride ions. By co...

Does lipophilicity affect the effectiveness of a transmembrane anion transporter? Insight from squaramido-functionalized bis(choloyl) conjugates.

Six squaramido-functionalized bis(choloyl) conjugates were synthesized and fully characterized on the basis of NMR ((1)H and (13)C) and ESI MS (LR and HR) data. Their transmembrane anionophoric activity was investigated in detail by means of chloride ion selective electrode technique and pyranine assay. The data indicate that this set of compounds is capable of promoting the transmembrane trans...

Selective Nitrate Recognition by a Halogen‐Bonding Four‐Station [3]Rotaxane Molecular Shuttle

The synthesis of the first halogen bonding [3]rotaxane host system containing a bis-iodo triazolium-bis-naphthalene diimide four station axle component is reported. Proton NMR anion binding titration experiments revealed the halogen bonding rotaxane is selective for nitrate over the more basic acetate, hydrogen carbonate and dihydrogen phosphate oxoanions and chloride, and exhibits enhanced rec...

Inhibition by Phenylglyoxal

Nitrate transport in excised corn (Zea mays L.) roots was inhibited by phenylglyoxal, but not by 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-stilbene disulfonic acid (DIDS) or fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). Inhibition of nitrate uptake by a 1-hour treatment with 1 millimolar phenylglyoxal was reversed after 3 hours, which was similar to the time needed for induction of nitrate uptake. If induction of nitrate ...
