Abstract excerpt
The Na+-HCO3- cotransporter NBC1 is located exclusively on the basolateral membrane and mediates vectorial transport of bicarbonate in a number of epithelia, including kidney and pancreas. To identify the motifs that direct the targeting of kidney NBC1 to basolateral membrane, wild type and various carboxyl-terminally truncated kidney NBC1 mutants were generated, fused translationally in-frame to GFP, and...
