Solute Carrier Transporter Superfamily SLCs, the second largest family of membrane proteins are responsible for the movement of ions and small hydrophilic compounds across membranes (Wright and Lee, 2022). There
therefore, they are not always distinguished in the literature. InS. suis,mef(A) and/ormef(E) have been identified [88]. Lincosamide resistance can be conferred by the ABC-F proteins of the Vga and Lsa families, but, unlike in the case of Mel, there are no...
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, claiming millions of lives annually and posing a severe threat to human health.1 Both the incidence and mo...
70 These proteins are single-span and often have tricellular localization. They comprise the basic structure of tTJ and ensure the correct tricellular localization of tricellulin.70,71 Thus, they indirectly and directly impact tricellular permeability of macromolecules and water.72,73 The junctional...
Cell size and shape are very important components when it comes to nutrient intake. Most cells are very small, in fact they are microscopic. There is a reason why they are so small. If cells were larger, they would not be able to survive....
Coleman JJ, White GJ, Rodriguez-Carres M, Van Etten HD (2011a) An ABC transporter and a cytochrome P450 of Nectria haematococca MPVI are virulence factors on pea and are the major tolerance mechanisms to the phytoalexin pisatin. Mol Plant Microbe Interact 24(3):368–376. https://doi.org...
Serotonin induces changes in the cell by its action on the serotonergic receptors, which are coupled to different G proteins mediating intracellular changes 2. Serotonin activates the intracellular signaling cascade through its 15 receptors, which are classified into 7 families (HTR1 to HTR7) based ...
Transcriptomic studies revealed that metal hyperaccumulation inArabidopsis hallerihas been associated with more than 30 candidate genes which are higher expressed compared with the nonaccumulatorA. thaliana(Becher et al.2004). (Pence et al.2000) could show that the Zn2+transporter ZnT1 is overexpress...
Examples of specific gene polymorphism or transgenic models asso- ciated with altered efficacy of stimulants are, for ampheta- mine, the dopamine transporter (Lott et al, 2005; Wisor et al, 2001), homer1a (Tappe and Kuner, 2006), casein kinase I-e (Palmer et al, 2005), and brain-...
More than one-third of American adults are obese and statistics are similar worldwide. Caloric intake and diet composition have large and lasting effects on cognition and emotion, especially during critical periods in development, but the neural mechanis
