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 …

Cell nutrition, detoxification, signalling, homeostasis and response to drugs, processes
related to cell growth, differentiation and survival are all mediated by plasma membrane …

The uric acid/xanthine H+ symporter, UapA, is a high-affinity purine transporter from the
filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans. Here we present the crystal structure of a …

Cryptococcus gattii infections in southern California have been reported in patients with
HIV/AIDS. In this study, we examined the molecular epidemiology, population structure, and …

The tripartite efflux pump AcrAB-TolC is responsible for the intrinsic and acquired multidrug
resistance in Escherichia coli. Its active part, the homotrimeric transporter AcrB, is in charge …

Transporters are ubiquitous proteins mediating the translocation of solutes across cell
membranes, a biological process involved in nutrition, signaling, neurotransmission, cell …

NCS 1 proteins are H+/Na+ symporters specific for the uptake of purines, pyrimidines and
related metabolites. In this article, we study the origin, diversification and substrate specificity …

In this work we unmask a novel downregulation mechanism of the uric acid/xanthine
transporter UapA, the prototype member of the ubiquitous Nucleobase‐Ascorbate …

Amino acids constitute a major nutritional source for probably all fungi. Studies of model
species such as the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the filamentous fungus …

We investigated the role of all arrestin‐like proteins of A spergillus nidulans in respect to
growth, morphology, sensitivity to drugs and specifically for the endocytosis and turnover of …
