enzyme regulation:Inhibited by formycin B. Sodium-dependent and purine-selective transporter. Exhibits the transport characteristics of the nucleoside transport system cif or N1 subtype (N1/cif) (selective for purine nucleosides and uridine). Plays a critical role in specific uptake and salvage of purine nucleosides in kidney and other tissues. Belongs to the concentrative nucleoside transporter (CNT) (TC 2. A. 41) family. tissue specificity:Expressed in heart and skeletal muscle followed by liver, kidney, intestine, pancreas, placenta and brain. Weak expression in lung. |
