Regulation of amino acid/carnitine transporter B0,+ (ATB0,+) in astrocytes by protein kinase C: Independent effects on raft and non-raft subpopulations

Proteins catalysing transport of polar small molecular weight compounds to the cell (transporters) facilitate both, a delivery of necessary compounds for cell functioning, as well as removal of some, very often toxic, metabolites. Our group has been working on amino acid and carnitine transporters in the brain cells, including a transporter of neutral and basic amino acids – B0,, coded in humans by a SLC6A14 gene and being a member of sodium, chloride-dependent family of ...
