Abstract excerpt
H(+)/organic cation antiporters (multidrug and toxin extrusion: MATE1 and MATE2-K) play important roles in the renal tubular secretion of cationic drugs. We have recently identified a regulatory single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the MATE1 gene (-32G>A). There is no other information about SNPs of the MATE gene. In this study, we evaluated the functional significance of genetic polymorphisms in MATE1 and...
