Abstract excerpt
Rat Oatp1 (Slc21a1) is an organic anion-transporting polypeptide believed to be an anion exchanger. To characterize its mechanism of transport, Oatp1 was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae under control of the GAL1 promoter. Protein was present at high levels in isolated S. cerevisiae secretory vesicles but had minimal posttranslational modifications and failed to exhibit taurocholate transport activity....
