S28A1 rabbit pAb - 50 μL

Function: Sodium-dependent and pyrimidine-selective. Exhibits the transport characteristics of the nucleoside transport system cit or N2 subtype (N2/cit) (selective for pyrimidine nucleosides and adenosine). It also transports the antiviral pyrimidine nucleoside analogs 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) and 2', 3'-dideoxycytidine (ddC). It may be involved in the intestinal absorption and renal handling of pyrimidine nucleoside analogs used to treat acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). It has the following selective inhibition: adenosine, thymidine, cytidine, uridine >> guanosine, inosine. polymorphism: Three variant forms of isoform 1 (A, B and C) are expressed in the kidney. All three variant forms have similar nucleoside transport activity. similarity: Belongs to the concentrative nucleoside transporter (CNT) (TC 2. A. 41) family. tissue specificity: Expressed in kidney.
