Sodium sulfate symporter
Protein family From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remove ads
Sodium sulfate symporters are integral membrane proteins that mediate the intake of a wide variety of molecules with the concomitant uptake of sodium ions. These sodium symporters can be grouped, on the basis of sequence and functional similarities into a number of distinct families. One of these families, also known as SLC13 transporters, consists of the following proteins:
- Mammalian sodium/sulphate cotransporter.[1]
- Mammalian renal sodium/dicarboxylate cotransporter,[2] which transports succinate and citrate.
- Mammalian intestinal sodium/dicarboxylate cotransporter.
- Chlamydomonas reinhardtii putative sulphur deprivation response regulator SAC1.[3]
