Abstract excerpt
The concentrative nucleoside transporter, CNT1 (SLC28A1), mediates the cellular uptake of naturally occurring pyrimidine nucleosides and many structurally diverse anticancer and antiviral nucleoside analogs. As a first step toward understanding whether genetic variation in CNT1 contributes to var...
