Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have demonstrated the involvement of a specialized, Na(+)-dependent carrier-mediated system for biotin uptake in mammalian intestine. The molecular identity of the carrier protein, the Na(+)-dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT), has recently been identified. Upon characterization of transcript expression in the rat intestine, four distinct transcript variants (I-IV) due to heterogeneity at...
