Molecular physiology and pathophysiology of lysosomal membrane transporters.

Abstract excerpt

In contrast to lysosomal hydrolytic enzymes, the lysosomal membrane remains poorly characterized. In particular, although the genetic study of cystinosis and sialic acid storage disorders led to the identification of two lysosomal transporters for cystine and sialic acids, respectively, ten years ago, most transporters responsible for exporting lysosomal hydrolysis products to the cytosol are still unknown at the...
