Abstract excerpt

K+-coupled amino acid transporter 1 (KAAT1) belongs to the NSS family of solute transporters and it is expressed in the midgut and in salivary glands of Manduca sexta larvae. As more than 80% of family members, KAATI shows a stretch of three glycines (G85-G87) that according to the structure of the prototype transporter LeuT, is located close to the access of the permeation pathway. In this work the role of the...
