The cDNA coding for a renal p-aminohippurate (PAH) transporter from winter flounder (Pseudopleuronectes americanus), designated fROAT, was cloned by functional expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes. fROAT is approximately 2.8 kbp in length and encodes a protein of 562 amino acids, related to the rat renal organic anion transporter ROAT1/OAT1 and the organic cation transporters OCT1 and OCT2. In oocytes, fROAT mediated probenecid-sensitive PAH uptake, with a Km for PAH of about 20 microM, and inhibited by external glutarate (GA) (1 mM). The functional characteristics suggest that fROAT is the basolateral PAH/dicarboxylate exchanger of the flounder kidney.
通过在非洲爪蟾卵母细胞中的功能表达,克隆出了编码冬比目鱼(美洲拟庸鲽)肾脏对氨基马尿酸(PAH)转运体的互补DNA(cDNA),命名为fROAT。fROAT长度约为2.8千碱基对,编码一个由562个氨基酸组成的蛋白质,与大鼠肾脏有机阴离子转运体ROAT1/OAT1以及有机阳离子转运体OCT1和OCT2相关。在卵母细胞中,fROAT介导丙磺舒敏感的PAH摄取,PAH的米氏常数约为20微摩尔,且受到细胞外戊二酸(GA)(1毫摩尔)的抑制。这些功能特性表明fROAT是比目鱼肾脏基底外侧的PAH/二羧酸交换体。
