As a compartment of the central carbon metabolism, mitochondria must be connected to the cytosol by molecular gates that facilitate a myriad of cellular processes. Members of the mitochondrial carrier family function to mediate the transport of metabolites across the impermeable inner mitochondrial membrane and, thus, are potentially crucial for metabolic control and regulation. Here, we focus on members of this family that might impact intracellular central plant carbon metabolism. We summarize and review what is currently known about these transporters from in vitro transport assays and in planta physiological functions, whenever available. From the biochemical and molecular data, we hypothesize how these relevant transporters might play a role in the shuttling of organic acids in the various flux modes of the TCA cycle. Furthermore, we also review relevant mitochondrial carriers that may be vital in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.

  • Ferroportin Mutation in Autosomal Dominant Hemochromatosis: Loss of Function, Gain in Understanding
    Ferroportin mutation in autosomal dominant hemochromatosis: loss of function, gain in understanding Robert E. Fleming, William S. Sly J Clin Invest. 2001;108(4):521-522. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI13739. Commentary Normal iron homeostasis requires close matching of dietary iron absorption with body iron needs (1). Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH), a common abnormality of iron metabolism, is characterized by excess absorption of dietary iron despite elevated stores, and secondary damage to the liver, pancreas, and other organs (2). Classic HH is caused by mutation of the HFE gene and is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. However, a substantial percentage of individuals with hemochromatosis, especially in non–Northern European populations, have no mutations in HFE (3). Many such cases differ from classic HH in the relative distribution of iron between the plasma, hepatocytes, and reticuloendothelial (RE) cells (4). Pietrangelo et al. recently reported a pedigree with atypical hemochromatosis inherited as an autosomal dominant trait (5). In this issue of the JCI, Montosi et al. report the surprising finding that the gene mutated in these patients (SLC11A3) encodes the iron export protein ferroportin1 (also known as IREG1, or MTP1) (6). They conclude that the identified mutation (A77D) probably results in loss of ferroportin1 function, suggesting that the affected individuals are haploinsufficient for this gene product. In a nearly simultaneous report, Njajou et al. (7) describe a similar pedigree with autosomal dominant hemochromatosis and a different missense mutation (N144H) in the same gene. Njajou et al., however, conclude that the iron overload phenotype was likely […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/13739/pdf Ferroportin mutation in autosomal Commentary dominant hemochromatosis: loss See related article, pages 619–623.

  • Primary and Secondary Thyroid Hormone Transporters Anita Kinne, Ralf Schülein, Gerd Krause*
    Kinne et al. Thyroid Research 2011, 4(Suppl 1):S7 http://www.thyroidresearchjournal.com/content/4/S1/S7 REVIEW Open Access Primary and secondary thyroid hormone transporters Anita Kinne, Ralf Schülein, Gerd Krause* Abstract Thyroid hormones (TH) are essential for the development of the human brain, growth and cellular metabolism. Investigation of TH transporters became one of the emerging fields in thyroid research after the discovery of inactivating mutations in the Monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8), which was found to be highly specific for TH transport. However, additional transmembrane transporters are also very important for TH uptake and efflux in different cell types. They transport TH as secondary substrates and include the aromatic amino acid transporting MCT10, the organic anion transporting polypeptides (e.g. OATP1C1, OATP1A2, OPTP1A4) and the large neutral amino acid transporters (LAT1 and LAT2). These TH transporters characteristically possess 12 transmembrane spanners but due to the strong differing sequences between the three transporter families we assume an identical conformation is not very likely. In contrast to the others, the LAT family members form a heterodimer with the escort protein 4F2hc/CD98. A comparison of sequence proportions, locations and types of functional sensitive features for TH transport discovered by mutations, revealed that transport sensitive charged residues occur as conserved amino acids only within each family of the transporter types but not in all putative TH transporters. Based on the lack of highly conserved sensitive charged residues throughout the three transporter families as a common counterpart for the amino acid moiety of the substrates, we conclude that the molecular transport mechanism is likely organized either a) by different molecular determinants in the divergent transporter types or b) the counterparts for the substrates` amino acid moiety at the transporter are not any charged side chains but other proton acceptors or donators.

To determine the biological function of FDXR, we generated a Fdxr- deficient mouse model and found that loss of Fdxr led to embryonic lethality potentially due to iron overload in developing embryos. Interestingly, mice heterozygous in Fdxr had a short life span and were prone to spontaneous tumors and liver abnormalities, including steatosis, hepatitis, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

  • Structure and Mechanism of the Divalent Anion/Na+ Symporter
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Structure and Mechanism of the Divalent Anion/Na+ Symporter Min Lu Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, 3333 Green Bay Road, North Chicago, IL 60064, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-847-578-8357 Received: 21 December 2018; Accepted: 18 January 2019; Published: 21 January 2019 Abstract: Integral membrane proteins of the divalent anion/Na+ symporter (DASS) family are conserved from bacteria to humans. DASS proteins typically mediate the coupled uptake of Na+ ions and dicarboxylate, tricarboxylate, or sulfate. Since the substrates for DASS include key intermediates and regulators of energy metabolism, alterations of DASS function profoundly affect fat storage, energy expenditure and life span. Furthermore, loss-of-function mutations in a human DASS have been associated with neonatal epileptic encephalopathy. More recently, human DASS has also been implicated in the development of liver cancers. Therefore, human DASS proteins are potentially promising pharmacological targets for battling obesity, diabetes, kidney stone, fatty liver, as well as other metabolic and neurological disorders. Despite its clinical relevance, the mechanism by which DASS proteins recognize and transport anionic substrates remains unclear. Recently, the crystal structures of a bacterial DASS and its humanized variant have been published. This article reviews the mechanistic implications of these structures and suggests future work to better understand how the function of DASS can be modulated for potential therapeutic benefit. Keywords: membrane protein; anion transporter; sodium symporter; dicarboxylate transporter; substrate recognition; sodium coordination 1. Introduction Integral membrane proteins from the divalent anion/Na+ symporter (DASS) family are found in all domains of life [1–3].

Tomsk Publishing House of Tomsk State University 2018 2 Essential trace elements in human health UDK 612:577.1 LBC 52.57 S66 Skalnaya Margarita G., Skalny Anatoly V. S66 Essential trace elements in human health: a physician's view. – Tomsk : Publishing House of Tomsk State University, 2018. – 224 p. ISBN 978-5-94621-683-8 Disturbances in trace element homeostasis may result in the development of pathologic states and diseases. The most characteristic patterns of a modern human being are deficiency of essential and excess of toxic trace elements. Such a deficiency frequently occurs due to insufficient trace element content in diets or increased requirements of an organism. All these changes of trace element homeostasis form an individual trace element portrait of a person. Consequently, impaired balance of every trace element should be analyzed in the view of other patterns of trace element portrait. Only personalized approach to diagnosis can meet these requirements and result in successful treatment. Effective management and timely diagnosis of trace element deficiency and toxicity may occur only in the case of adequate assessment of trace element status of every individual based on recent data on trace element metabolism. Therefore, the most recent basic data on participation of essential trace elements in physiological processes, metabolism, routes and volumes of entering to the body, relation to various diseases, medical applications with a special focus on iron (Fe), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), iodine (I), cobalt (Co), chromium, and molybdenum (Mo) are reviewed.

  • REVIEW the Molecular Basis of Insulin
    1 REVIEW The molecular basis of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake: signalling, trafficking and potential drug targets Sophie E Leney and Jeremy M Tavare´ Department of Biochemistry, School of Medical Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol BS8 1TD, UK (Correspondence should be addressed to J M Tavare´; Email: [email protected]) Abstract The search for the underlying mechanism through which GLUT4 translocation and will attempt to address the spatial insulin regulates glucose uptake into peripheral tissues has relationship between the signalling and trafficking com- unveiled a highly intricate network of molecules that function ponents of this event. We will also explore the degree to in concert to elicit the redistribution or ‘translocation’ of which components of the insulin signalling and GLUT4 the glucose transporter isoform GLUT4 from intracellular trafficking machinery may serve as potential targets for membranes to the cell surface. Following recent technological the development of orally available insulin mimics for the advances within this field, this review aims to bring together treatment of diabetes mellitus. the key molecular players that are thought to be involved in Journal of Endocrinology (2009) 203, 1–18 Introduction Levine & Goldstein 1958). However, the mechanism by which insulin is able to stimulate glucose uptake was not Glucose homeostasis and diabetes mellitus elucidated until the early 1980s when two independent groups demonstrated that insulin promoted the movement of The ability of insulin to stimulate glucose uptake into muscle and adipose tissue is central to the maintenance of whole- a ‘glucose transport activity’ from an intracellular membrane body glucose homeostasis. Autoimmune destruction of the pool to the plasma membrane (Cushman & Wardzala 1980, pancreatic b-cells results in a lack of insulin production Suzuki & Kono 1980).
