Title: Cloning of the cDNA for a rat intestinal Na+/dicarboxylate cotransporter reveals partial sequence homology with a rat intestinal mucin. Author: Khatri IA, Kovacs SV, Forstner JF. Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1996 Nov 11; 1309(1-2):58-62. PubMed ID: 8950177. Abstract: In this report we present the full-length cDNA and deduced 587 amino acid sequence of a putative rat intestinal Na+/dicarboxylate cotransporter. It shows sequence and structural similarity to a rabbit renal Na+/dicarboxylate cotransporter. An unexpected fining was the presence of a C-terminal transmembrane region that is homologous with an 87 amino acid hydrophobic region of a rat intestinal mucin, M2. Mucin-related sequences in transporter proteins have not been described before.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
