Abstract excerpt
Organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B3 (OATP1B3) is a liver-specific transporter that mediates uptake of various substances from blood into hepatocytes. The transport function of OATP1B3 was shown to be pH-sensitive. As the protonation state of extracellular histidine residues can be affected by the environmental pH, in the present study, the role of 7 extracellular histidine residues in the function and pH...
