Abstract excerpt
Na+-taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP, SLC10A1) is a key hepatic uptake transporter for bile acids and drugs and is the main functional receptor for hepatitis B and D viruses. Next-generation sequencing has revealed that a large number of rare SLC10A1 variants exist in the population. Little data exist regarding head-to-head comparison of in silico algorithms to predict functional effects of...
