This review aims to serve as an introduction to the solute carrier proteins (SLC) superfamily
of transporter proteins and their roles in human cells. The SLC superfamily currently …

The solute-carrier gene (SLC) superfamily encodes membrane-bound transporters. The
SLC superfamily comprises 55 gene families having at least 362 putatively functional protein …

Solute carrier (SLC) membrane transport proteins control essential physiological functions,
including nutrient uptake, ion transport, and waste removal. SLCs interact with several …

Solute carrier (SLC) transporters—a family of more than 300 membrane-bound proteins that
facilitate the transport of a wide array of substrates across biological membranes—have …

The transport of materials across membranes is a vital process for all aspects of cellular
function, including growth, metabolism, and communication. Protein transporters are the …

The prevalence of metabolic diseases is growing worldwide. Accumulating evidence
suggests that solute carrier (SLC) transporters contribute to the etiology of various metabolic …

The human solute carriers (SLCs) comprise over 400 different transporters, organized into
65 families (http://slc. bioparadigms. org/) based on their sequence homology and transport …

With more than 450 members, the solute carrier (SLC) group of proteins represents the
largest class of transporters encoded in the human genome. Their several-pass …

Membrane-bound solute carrier (SLC) transporter proteins are vital to the human body, as
they sustain homeostasis by moving soluble molecule as nutrients, drugs, and waste across …

The field of transport biology has steadily grown over the past decade and is now
recognized as playing an important role in manifestation and treatment of disease. The SLC …
